LCF Archives ‘Story of a Smock’ Display Tour
About this Event

This event is open to UAL staff and students only. Please bring your ID card on entry to this event.
Story of a Smock: Women and Art Education in the Early 20th Century, is a collaborative display between the Centre for Fashion Curation (CfFC) and LCF Archives.
The project is centered on an artist’s smock of unknown provenance, using genealogical and archival research to trace its wearer and uncover the garment’s wider cultural significance. Through this modest object, research explores how clothing became a symbol of women artists’ struggle for education, professional identity, and creative freedom in the early 20th century.
At this tour, the display curators will talk you through the objects on display and the stories they tell.

Spaces for this event are very limited, so booking is essential. If you can no longer make it, please cancel your ticket order so that another student or staff member can attend.

This event will take place in person at:
LCF Archives, London College of Fashion
Room G02, 105 Carpenters Road, E20 2AR.

This project is supported by The Society of Antiquaries Janet Arnold Award.
