Fashion muse Daphne Guinness purchased Isabella’s wardrobe following her death in 2008 and Isabella Blow: A Fashionable Life will provide a rare chance to see garments, hats and shoes by iconic British designers and hats from Philip Treacy’s personal archives.
Known as a great eccentric, both in her behaviour and her dress, this exhibition showcases some of the most extreme pieces from Isabella’s infamous wardrobe.
