Using augmented reality, Vogue x Snapchat: Redefining the Body is an exhibition that invites everyone – regardless of race, gender, sexuality, and size – to experience and enjoy fashion from some of the world’s very best designers and luxury brands. It doesn’t get better than that.” – Edward Enninful OBE, Editor in Chief, British Vogue, and European Editorial Director, Vogue
