Gus Casely-Hayford, director of V&A East, unpicks the hidden histories behind what we wear by exploring ten key moments in fashion spanning the globe and five centuries.

From the start of the global trade in cotton, to the accidental invention of artificial dyes, Gus reveals the historical weight we carry through our clothes and the statements we make just by getting dressed in the morning.

This is the first of two omnibus editions of the series.
