As famous, if not more so, for her wardrobe as her number one hits, the world has watched Madonna's style evolve throughout her career. And now there will be an exhibition in London charting her many incarnations from punky pop princess to Evita and more.
In February 2009, East London's Old Truman Brewery will host 'Simply Madonna: Materials of the Girl' showcasing many of her most iconic stage costumes and the clothes she has worn in various videos and film.
Amongst them, the wedding dress she wore in the 'Like a Virgin' video, the famous Marilyn Monroe-esque pink ball gown from the 'Material Girl' video and the baseball kit she wore in the film, 'A League of their Own'.
Curator of the exhibition, Ted Owen, says of the collection, ''These are museum-quality pieces – but they will be presented in-keeping with the glamour and sense of theatre that the queen of pop has made her trademark – and Madonna fans should be very excited indeed.'
Tickets go on sale in the new year.
