This is a small exhibition in the middle of the fashion galleries. It shows examples of various underwear throughout history. It largely seems to focus on the higher end rather than looking at what poorer people would wear in history.

This very popular exhibition has lots of information about 1966 to 1970. Before entering the exhibition you are handed headphones and a devise that automatically changes the music as you go around the exhibition. Due to the popularity of the exhibition it can be difficult to see everything as it was very crowded. It has fashions from celebrities of the time, information on music, hippies peace, civil rights and feminist movements, record sleeves and lots more. There isn’t very much about each exhibit so you don’t get much background.

The Tate are opening up early at weekends so that members can visit this exhibition between 8 and 10 on Saturdays and Sundays. I took advantage of this on 19 Feb which was the second weekend of the exhibition.
A lot of other members were also taking advantage of the early opening. You enter from the side entrance and the only areas that are open are this exhibition, the little Hockley gift shop at the end of the exhibition and the Friends rooms which is apparently open for brunch.
The exhibition is set out into different periods/genres of Hockney’s work with pantinces, phot collages and up to date pictures done on Ipads and IPhones.
