‘NAOMI: In Fashion’ is a celebration of the unparalleled 40-year career of a legendary fashion model and cultural icon Naomi Campbell, set to open at V&A South Kensington this summer… This groundbreaking exhibition, produced in collaboration with Campbell herself, highlights her immense contributions to the fashion industry.

From being scouted at just 15 in Covent Garden to gracing the cover of Paris Vogue at 18, Campbell’s journey is one of triumph and trailblazing. The exhibition showcases her extensive wardrobe of haute couture and ready-to-wear ensembles, alongside loans from designer archives and items from the V&A’s collections. It delves into Campbell’s activism, highlighting her early advocacy for equity and her pivotal role in promoting diversity within the industry.

Divided into thematic sections, the exhibition explores Campbell’s evolution from a young girl with dreams of the stage to a global supermodel and influential figure in contemporary culture. It features her collaborations with iconic designers like Azzedine Alaïa and Vivienne Westwood, her enduring friendships with fashion luminaries, and her transformative impact on the world of fashion photography.

‘NAOMI: In Fashion’ is not just an exhibition; it’s a tribute to Campbell’s legacy as a model, activist, philanthropist, and creative force, celebrating her remarkable career and inspiring generations to come.
