About

A museum founded in 2003 by designer Zandra Rhodes, located in Bermondsey in a building designed by Mexican architect Ricardo Legorreta. It is operated by Newham College of Further Education.

Free entry for under-12s makes this worthwhile if you're in Bermondsey. The exhibitions rotate and focus on fashion and textiles. Children aged 8+ interested in clothing design or fashion history may engage. The building itself is architecturally striking (colourful Mexican design).
