A gallery talk by the artist Cathy Lomax exploring the relationship between film star and spectator in the current exhibition Reflexion. In this talk she will focus on a famous white dress worn by Joan Crawford in the 1932 film Letty Lynton which became one of the most copied film costumes and has gone on to inspire designs by Valentino, Chanel, Giabattista Vialli and Molly Goddard. The film will be screened after the talk at the Connaught Studio cinema with an introduction by film costume historian Tamar Jeffers McDonald.
