30 Years of Ally Capellino at Wapping Project marks three decades of the label's bags, clothes and accessories being produced. With a month long celebration that includes two special bag designs and an exhibition at the Wapping Project gallery, this is one special birthday that fashion fans won't want to miss.
30 Years of Ally Capellino at Wapping Project
Featuring work from over the past 30 years from the designer founder Alison Lloyd, the exhibition of 30 Years of Ally Capellino at Wapping Project will include a fantastic selection of her items, set in an artistic installation. If you are a fan of the Ally Capellino style, this is the perfect chance to see a major retrospective of herwork.
Wall of bags
One of the major highlights of the Ally Capellino exhibition is sure to be the imposing wall of bags set at the end of the hall, and hidden amongst them a secret door. Featuring designs from across the period the range has been up and running, many of the items on show on the wall have been lent to the Wapping Project show by clients and fans. Having started back in 1980, the company has undergone many changes, and you will be able to see just how much the designs have changed with 30 years of bags, clothes and accessories on show.
Film screenings
Three films are at the heart of 30 Years of Ally Capellino at Wapping Project, all of which feature items from the design collection being worn or used by their owners. Created by photographer and filmmaker Donald Christie, this is your chance to see how Ally Capellino fans relate to their items and how they have used them over the years.
Liberty of London
The renowned department store Libertys is also getting in on the birthday celebrations for the accessories label, by stocking two specially designed bags, both of which feature the famous Liberty print on their lining. Asides from the work on show at 30 Years of Ally Capellino at Wapping Project, there will also be a display of bags on the main staircase at Liberty to highlight the long standing relationship the store has with the designer.
30 Years of Ally Capellino at Wapping Project takes place from Thursday 22nd April - Friday 22nd May 2010.
