Ivan Sayers Examined Exploitation of Animals in the Fashion Industry

In April, fashion historian Ivan Sayers examined the exploitation of animals in the fashion industry at one of the artist talks for our exhibition, INVOKING VENUS, Feathers and Fashion. Throughout his presentation, Sayers also featured clothing and accessories from his private collection. If you have missed this eye-opening presentation, you can watch it here:
