Spanning all sectors of the fashion industry ? from homeworking to haute couture ? the book draws stories from generations of Jewish Londoners and is richly illustrated with images from across the city and the Museum of London?s collections.0Fashion City takes you on a journey across London, from the busy clothing factories of the East End to the swinging boutiques of Carnaby Street and the manicured squares of Mayfair. Along the way it introduces you to the intriguing stories of the key figures behind London fashion, such as Frederick Starke, a boy from the East End whose ability to tell a creative story changed the way the world saw British ready-to-wear fashion; Otto Lucas, a gay Jewish German hat maker who became the most financially successful milliner in the world; Mr Fish, the rule-defying tailor who dressed Mick Jagger and Muhammed Ali; and Netty Spiegel, who escaped the Nazis on the Kindertransport and became a London wedding dress designer of choice under her ?Neymar? label.00Exhibition: Museum of London Docklands, London, UK (13.10.2023-14.04.2024). 650 0 $a Jewish fashion designers $z London $z London $x History $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Fashion $z London $z London $x History $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Jews $x History $z London $z London $x History $y 20th century. 700 1 $a Whitmore, Lucie $c (Fashion curator), $e author. 710 2 $a Museum of London Docklands, $e host institution. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240502013505.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E694B990084B11EFBCAD05DA2DECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
