\nA dress designed for David Bowie by Jewish designer Michael Fish (Trinity Mirror)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Did your family work in the schmatte trade?\u00a0If so, the Museum of London Docklands needs your help.<\/span><\/p>\n

The museum is appealing for clothes and accessories made by celebrated Jewish designers such as silhouette innovator Mr Fish, Cecil Gee, milliner Otto Lucas, Rahvis, Neymar and Madame Isobel for a major new exhibition spotlighting Jewish designers and their innovative fashion creations.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe tell the stories of all Londoners, and this is our first major exhibition that celebrates London\u2019s Jewish communities,\u201d said fashion curator Dr Lucie Whitmore, who is putting together the exhibition.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re making sure that we are broad in thinking about who those communities are, so we\u2019ve got stories about both Ashkenazi and Sephardi Jewish people, we have people who arrived in the city at different times, different cultural backgrounds, different life paths. But we know that for a lot of people today, this will be a really personal story because it\u2019s such a big part of London\u2019s Jewish history, is that involvement in the dress and textile trades\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

On her wishlist are specific items such as\u00a0menswear by Mr Fish, or by Beatles favourite Cecil Gee, womenswear by Rahvis, hats made by Otto Lucas and find theatre costumes made by Neymar and gowns made by society dressmaker Madame Isobel in the 1930s.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a really nice way to pay tribute to the stories of designers that don\u2019t always get time in the public eye, or don\u2019t always get the recognition for the differences that they made to the fashion industry and by extension, London\u2019s economy and success. These are people who played a really important part we celebrate their legacy.\u201d said Dr Whitmore.<\/span><\/p>\n

The exhibition is the first time in 20 years that the museum has focused on its fashion and textile collection. \u201cFashion City: How Jewish Londoners Shaped Global Style\u201d will open to the public between October 2023 and April 2024. It\u00a0will give visitors the chance to step into the world of Carnaby Street in the 1960s, and a traditional East End tailoring workshop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Museum of London Docklands is looking for the following items including David Bowie\u2019s dress worn on The Man Who Sold the World\u2019s album image, Sean Connery\u2019s shirts from his time as the first 007 agent, and a hat belonging to the famed film actress Greta Garbo.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a personal story for a lot of people and I hope that people can take something from seeing the acknowledgment of that,\u201d said Dr Whitmore.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have information about the items above, please email:\u00a0fashioncity@museumoflondon.org.uk<\/a>\u00a0or visit\u00a0https:\/\/www.museumoflondon.org.uk\/museum-london-docklands\/whats-on\/fashion-city<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0for more details. The museum call out will be open until 1 March 2023<\/span><\/p>\n
