Iconic photographs of some of fashion’s greatest names, plus haute couture and unique garments will take the spotlight in a stylish look at the history of the catwalk.

A Male Perspective: Redressing Fashion, as part of the exhibition, features looks collected over the past 40 years by Simon Nicholls, a Barnsley-based salon owner.
