Fashion V Sport reveals the influence of sportswear on fashion and how both industries have been inspired by street style.


Sportswear has become an important part of the modern wardrobe.  Trainers and tracksuits are more likely to be seen on the high street than shirts and suits, and high performance textiles developed for athletes can be found on the world's fashion catwalks. 

Divided into four sections, Dare, Display, Play and Desire, and using outfits and objects from the world's top fashion houses and sports brands, the exhibition guides the visitor through the complex and creative connections between the two worlds of fashion and sport.

Exhibition organised by the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.
