Mark C. O’Flaherty and Claire Wilcox discuss 'What do our clothes really mean?' with designer and creative director Giles Deacon.


Join two of the most insightful and authoritative writers in fashion for a lively discussion and celebration of the stories our clothing tells others, and how certain cherished garments define us.

Writer and photographer Mark C. O’Flaherty is the author of the new book Narrative Thread, Conversations on Fashion Collections, exploring the archives of 14 individuals, including Charlie Casely-Hayford, Sandy Powell and Stephen Jones. “I adored this book and can’t recommend it highly enough” – Cathy Horyn, The Cut

Curator and writer Claire Wilcox is the author of the award-winning memoir Patch Work: A Life Amongst Clothes, detailing her career as senior curator at the V&A, including the creation of Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty 2015 and Vivienne Westwood 2004. “Effervescent, poetic, puzzle-like” – Lauren Indvik, The Financial Times

The conversation will be chaired by designer and creative director Giles Deacon and will be followed by an audience Q&A and book signing.
