Naomi Campbell takes center stage at the Victoria & Albert Museum’s latest exhibition, “Naomi: In Fashion,” where her iconic runway moments are showcased in a captivating display. High on the walls, videos of Campbell’s legendary catwalk walks loop continuously, complemented by audio recordings of her distinctive London accent. The exhibit features mannequins meticulously crafted to mirror Campbell’s figure, including one that poignantly recreates her famed stumble at Vivienne Westwood’s 1993 show, complete with the designer’s towering heels.
The V&A has established a reputation for exploring contemporary culture through its exhibitions. “Naomi: In Fashion,” however, marks a departure from its typical focus on designers and artists, centering instead on Campbell, one of the most renowned models globally. This groundbreaking exhibition, developed in close collaboration with Campbell, highlights her extensive collection of haute couture and ready-to-wear garments, alongside items from designer archives and pieces from the museum’s own collection.
Just a short stroll from the V&A, The Kensington Hotel is enhancing its partnership with the museum by offering a unique cultural experience. The hotel’s exterior, adorned with pastel floral arrangements, sets the stage for a luxurious stay. Guests who check in will not only enjoy the hotel’s sophisticated ambiance but also gain exclusive access to tickets for the V&A’s highly sought-after summer exhibitions, including “Naomi: In Fashion” and “Fragile Beauty: Photographs from the Sir Elton John and David Furnish Collection.”
The Kensington, part of The Doyle Collection, has a longstanding relationship with the museum, and this latest collaboration brings visitors an enriched cultural experience, blending luxury accommodation with premier access to London’s premier exhibitions.
