I was delighted to be asked to submit a question for Barbara Hulanicki, as part of Visit Brighton‘s series of promotional videos for the upcoming Biba exhibition at Brighton Museum in September. I decided to go out on a geeky limb and ask about the Biba ‘couture’ range which I blogged about in February of last year.
Thanks to Jo-ann Fortune at Visit Brighton and to Barbara herself. The exhibition opens on the 22nd of September and I am very much looking forward to seeing it, no doubt decked out in my Biba finery. I will, of course, be blogging about it once it has opened, so stay tuned!

Brilliant question! I was hoping that you would ask her about that..it’s been on my mind since I read your post about the Biba Couture range last year, delighted to have been asked to take part in this Q&A with Barbara too, really looking forward to the exhibition. ; )
Thank you! I guess I kind of knew the answer anyway, but it was worth finally getting the question out there…
Now I’m trying to figure out how to work in a trip down to Brighton while I’m in England this autumn. So many things to see, so little time!
You can come and visit me in my studio as well! 😀
