Charlie Porter, curator and one of fashion’s most eminent writers, will be in conversation with Oriole Cullen, Senior Curator of Fashion & Textiles at the V&A who studied The History of Dress at London’s Courtauld Institute and has curated some of fashion’s most important exhibitions. Together, they will discuss how clothes can be used in research, in the context of Charlie’s new book Bring No Clothes: Bloomsbury and the Philosophy of Fashion and its accompanying exhibition at Charleston.
