Having seen pictures of the Design Museum’s grand entrance hall before visiting I expected there to be more to see.
Much of the space inside is dedicated to seminar rooms so the exhibitions are fairly small. Worth seeing, but they won’t take the whole day.
This exhibition marks Barbie’s 65th anniversary, featuring historic dolls like the 1959 original and 1992’s best-selling Totally Hair Barbie.
A collection of drawings, paintings, photographs, and sketches, plus various design works from childhood to the present, highlight recurring visual themes in distinctive characters and worlds.
Mary Portas chats with Josephine Chanter about today’s design and retail scene, high street communities, future fashion trends, and the ‘kindness economy’.
