Directions
Founded by designer Zandra Rhodes, the Fashion and Textile Museum puts clothing, fabric and the people who create them at the centre of its story. Its home on Bermondsey Street is south of the Thames, near the City of London. The museum’s compact galleries host focused exhibitions on fashion and textile design, giving visitors room to examine the details of colour, pattern and construction. Past displays have explored the work of Susan Collier and Sarah Campbell, including decades of their pattern designs. Other exhibitions have examined costume and its connections to performance. Alongside the displays, classes offer another way to engage with textile-making. The museum’s emphasis on both finished garments and creative processes makes it a rewarding stop for anyone curious about how design shapes everyday life.
Before you enter
- Check the current exhibition before visiting; the displays change.
- Confirm opening hours before setting out, especially around holidays.
- Allow time to explore Bermondsey Street before or after your visit.
What to expect
- Expect a compact museum rather than a full-day collection.
- Look for detailed labels explaining designers, techniques and patterns.
- Check whether a class or hands-on activity coincides with your visit.
During your visit
- Step back from patterned textiles to see their overall composition, then move closer for details.
- Read exhibition timelines to place designs in their wider context.
- Take your time in each gallery; the smaller space rewards close looking.
