DESCRIPTION:Apr 3\, 2026 - Jan 17\, 2027\nIn 2013\, the famed Chanel design
 er Karl Lagerfeld said\, “Sweatpants are a sign of defeat. You lost cont
 rol of your life\, so you bought some sweatpants.” And yet in 2023\, jus
 t four years after Lagerfeld’s death\, Chanel released multiple runway l
 ooks that included patchwork cashmere pants and loose leggings—all of wh
 ich seemed to resemble Lagerfeld’s detested sweatpants. Fashion changes\
 , sometimes swiftly. But how has the runway experience changed over time? 
 The V&A Dundee’s new exhibition holds some answers. “Catwalk: The Art 
 of the Fashion Show” features photos and film footage\, original runway 
 pieces from luxury designers\, highly designed invitations to fashion show
 s\, and stage props. It takes viewers on a journey through different polit
 ical climates and looks at how such cultural weather affects the industry
 ’s presentation of its collections. Expect to see designs from Alexander
  McQueen\, Balenciaga\, Chanel\, Comme des Garçons\, Dior\, Gucci\, Helmu
 t Lang\, Hussein Chalayan\, Martin Margiela\, Prada\, and Yves Saint Laure
 nt\, to name a few.
