The Fashion & Style gallery draws on Brighton & Hove City Museums' costume collection to produce displays that explore a series of inter-related themes. The themes selected reflect different aspects of Brighton life.

The current displays in the gallery are grouped into four areas:

George IV - presents items associated with the King responsible for the creation of the Royal Pavilion and making Brighton fashionable.

Internationalism - explores cross-cultural influences on fashion.

Renegade - reveals alternative styles of clothing.

The Collection - illustrates highlights from the costume collection here in Brighton.
