A decade when British culture exploded with confidence and contradiction, The 90s captures the creative intersection between art and fashion. Edited by ex-Vogue Director, Edward Enninful, through iconic imagery and personal reflections as well as essays, the book traces how art, fashion, music and design dismantled hierarchies and reshaped Britain's global cultural identity. Both vivid chronicle and critical reflection, it reveals why the spirit of the 1990s remains urgent today.
Explore a decade characterised by its bold creativity and rebellious spirit. Curated by industry game changer, Edward Enninful OBE, an image maker who has played a pivotal role in shaping fashion's history, The 90s examines a seminal decade in which a groundswell of creativity changed the face of British culture. As the Cold War ended and Britain began to emerge from recession, a new dawn of optimism, freedom, and rebellion was ushered in, epitomised by a new generation of diverse creative talent. This sense of boundless opportunity resulted in art, design, fashion and music fusing into one potent cultural force, signalling an audacious renewal of British spirit.
The exhibition explores how long-held hierarchies were dismantled, with high art and pop culture feeding into one another, and looks at the enduring influence of key figures who emerged from this time. The 90s brings together iconic images by photographers including Juergen Teller, Nick Knight, David Sims and Corrine Day. They will be shown alongside the work of artists like Damien Hirst, Gillian Wearing, and Yinka Shonibare, as well as fashion collections by decade defining designers including Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen, and Hussein Chalayan.
Edward Enninful OBE is a pioneering fashion editor, stylist, and cultural leader. Raised in London, he began his career at i-D magazine, becoming its fashion director at just 18. Known for championing diversity and redefining beauty standards, he went on to work with Italian Vogue, American Vogue, and W Magazine. In 2017, Enninful became the first male and first Black editor-in-chief of British Vogue, transforming the magazine with inclusive, socially conscious storytelling. His influence extends beyond fashion, as he continues to advocate for representation, equity, and creativity across the global cultural landscape.
