Midsumma may be over but Melbourne’s queer events are here to keep the Pride going! This week, Queer Melbourne delivers photography, theatre and fashion.
Skip the queues and book online to catch the Mind, Mythos, Muse retrospective of iconic designer Alexander McQueen at the NGV.
Featuring 60 garments and accessories from the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and nearly 50 pieces from the NGV’s own collection, this exhibition weaves fashion with inspiration, including work by Robert Mapplethorpe, M.
C. Escher and Pablo Picasso among marble sculptures from antiquity and historical textiles and garments. Friday nights also see the NGV’s great hall and garden transforming into an echo of McQueen’s 90’s London with live music and pop-up bars from 6 pm to 10 pm.
