Join us for a tour of the newest and largest exhibition ever at Kensington Palace. This tour will take us through fashion of the centuries, starting with the world famous silver tissue gown worn at the court of Charles II all the way up to Lizzo’s Thom Browne dress worn at 2022 Met Gala. The exhibition will draw surprising parallels between intricate preparations for attending the historic royal court in the Georgian period and the flamboyant celebrity styling that is expected from modern red carpet events today. You will see contemporary couture worn by high profile celebrities such as Lady Gaga and Beyonce, displayed alongside historic costumes worn in the 18th century.

This tour will last around 90 minutes and you will have the opportunity to shop or have a snack at the Kensington Palace Pavilion afterwards.
