Description: | This article examines the incidence of menswear in fashion exhibitions, staged worldwide, over the past 45 years. Drawing on two related sets of data I delineate statistical and thematic tendencies relating to the exhibition of menswear and, through examination of a sample of exhibitions visited, I reflect on the inclusion of menswear in fashion exhibitions in relation to a defined typology of fashion exhibitions. Subsequently, I discuss in detail the presence and presentation of menswear in one particular fashion exhibition type – the designer monograph. The article is completed with review of Reigning Men: Fashion in Menswear 1715–2015 (Los Angeles County Museum of Art, 10 April-21 August 2016) which, through presentation of over 350 items of menswear spanning over 200 years, was one of the largest exhibitions of fashionable menswear of recent years. |
