Words by Ian Thompson | 10 July 2015

The well-received exhibition, featuring Schläppi Mannequins by Bonaveri has been extended due to its phenomenal popularity – numbers of visitors are reported as being close to those seen at the former Alexander McQueen show in 2011. The 350,000 visitors and expected numbers to come has resulted in the organisers extending the exhibition to satisfy demand.

The exhibition features more than 140 examples of haute couture and avant-garde ready-to-wear alongside Chinese art and spans 16 galleries across 30,000 square feet. Bonaveri supplied mannequins from the Schläppi collection with bespoke heads.
