This show was all clothes from an apparently famous designer from the PRC, a lot of it shown originally in Beijing. And it was nuts. Super over the top clothes, with some historical references thrown in, a bit like the work of Gaultier or Vivienne Westwood, but more extreme. Definitely worth seeing, or at least check out the images on the museum website. The design of the show was excellent too, with some good semi-ambient music mixed with a bit of Chinese opera references. Also they put some dresses in the other galleries of the museum, and they played off some of the pieces in the permanent collection. So you can get a taste of the show just by going through the other galleries.
