In "the laboratory" at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), New York's own Central Saint Martins, a team of 30 preservationists, curators and seamstresses have spent the last two years preparing for an exhibition of Daphne Guinness's large wardrobe of approximately 100 pieces.

The exhibition will surly be filled with Alexander McQueen. Guinness, one of his long time muses has aquired many bespoke pieces. Other designers include: Azzedine Alaïa, Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel, John Galliano for Christian Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Rick Owens, Gareth Pugh, and Valentino as well as many of her own creations.

The exhibition is co-curated by Daphne Guinness and Valerie Steele, Director and Chief Curator of The Museum at FIT.
