Estorick Collection, 39a Canonbury Square, Islington, N1 2AN

Exhibitions: , Gallery, Fashion, History

How Much: Free!
Missoni have come a long way from their origins as producers of jersey tracksuits in the 1940s to become one of the most instantly recognisable fashion brands in the world. Known for bold zig-zag patterning and subtle use of tone and texture, Missoni is still very much a family-orientated operation.

This year it's fifty years since the company's official founding (by Ottavio and Rosita Missoni) and to celebrate Estorick Collection is hosting an exhibition that seeks to explore the techniques involved in production, as well as the sources of inspiration behind many of the designs.

Until 20.09.09.
