Dress for the Lens Competition

Feeling creative? Embrace the spirit of the exhibition by dressing up for the evening.

Channel a photographic studio sitter, a fashionable flâneur, a bold reformer, or create your own interpretation inspired by the fashions, textures and photographic styles of 1850-1920. No museum-perfect costume required. Originality, storytelling and personal flair are all part of the fun.

A standout look will win a special prize on the night.
