The Powerhouse will house everything from aristocratic get-ups to modern haute couture when it hosts the world's biggest men's fashion exhibition.
Overview
Sydney style lovers are in for a treat, as the city is hosting the world's biggest exhibition of men's fashion.
Running exclusively at the Powerhouse Museum from May 2 until October 14, the Reigning Men collection trips back through history, shining the spotlight on male style from 1715 through 2015.
Co-presented by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) and the MAAS Centre for Fashion, the exhibition pulls together over 130 outfits, from 18th century aristocratic get-ups to more recent high-end creations from the world's most famed fashion houses. Get up close and personal with designs from the likes of Burberry, Alexander McQueen, Jean Paul Gaultier, Louis Vuitton and Tom Ford.
Alongside the exhibition, there'll be a program of talks and special events, including May 2's panel conversation, Reigning Men: Pomp & Pragmatism. This one will dive deep into the background of LACMA's mind-blowing fashion collection and explore the curation of this landmark style exhibition.
