Dirty Looks review – room after room of utterly filthy fashion
['Morwenna Ferrier']
Guardian Middle East
Perhaps because gloss is regarded as an integral element of luxury fashion, objects such as designer dirty trainers tend to infuriate people.
The designer buried garments in a friend’s garden then dug them up, a sort of ruin in reverse.
The remaining rooms take these two ideas (dirt, decay) and drag them through the mire of punk and grunge to modern fashion.
Because there is dirt and designer dirt.
Here, as alternatives to the sterilisation of modern fashion, is dirt as proof of a life well lived.
