Vivienne Westwood at the V&A

Let's all go and see the Vivienne Westwood retrospective at the Victoria and Albert! It's on until the 11th July, it will no doubt have many beautiful clothes designed by the British mistress of fashion design and hopefully some of her shoes will be on display as well. Name a day and time, I'm going more than once anyway...

Sunday 9th May? If memory serves there's a not too bad pub round the one way system in Thurloe Street that we could go to afterwards...

The 9th is good for me- anyone else fancy it?

The Fourth

19:00 / 01.05.04

I'm coming, defo. Tried on some Westwood shoes today, very lovely but didn't get them cos they're black and i'm not into black shoes at the mo, but i might change my mind and decide i am for that pair. And there is a Bill Brandt exhibition at the V & A too, so maybe i should get those shoes then i can photograph them in celebration of both people's work and creativity. Splendid!

Ooooh! This sounds great! Can I come, too?

Yes yes

not so sure if I can make it now as Saturday night will be a bit of a sesh for me and I know I will be very hungover on Sunday.

Aah well, wait and see how you feel.

What time do you lot want to meet? I'm probably going to have to come in from Herts so about 3pm would be good for me.

That sounds OK to me - but is it likely to be very crowded at that time?

Damn! I'm coming to town next week (14th) and me and the missus are going to see it then. So please give us a report afterwards. Thanx!

hmm, I don't know! I never worry about crowds because I don't have to queue and I see everything twice anyway.

Meeting outside the main entrance then? It closes at 5:45, does 2 and 3/4 hours give you enough time to dribble jealously at the fashion Anna?

Can someone phone me or text me with the final arrangements? I am about to leave the office and won't have internet access over the weekend...

Has anyone texted Kit-Cat with the details, because I can do it if they haven't...

Tryphena Absent

Erm, no, I was going to ring her tomorrow but if you could text that would be easier because you know my ongoing mobile phone no credit saga!

Sorry I missed this! I was seized with a desire to paint my room -don't ask - and that took up my fashion time. But soon my room will be just as fashionable as the V&A...

But will it have £400 umbrellas and that weird thing hanging from the ceiling that looks like the result of drug-taking glassblowers having sex?

But that thing is so ugly.
I was quite taken with the three dresses that were too big for the normal cabinets, and were on the big stand in the middle.

There's a clothes-making workshop type thing on there next saturday, which if I get round to phoning up about, might go to. It sounded a bit groovy.
