Madonna's wardrobe to be exhibited in Brick Lane

MADONNA'S most iconic outfits will go on show in a major new exhibition coming to London's Brick Lane.

From Material Girl's pink satin number to her Like a Virgin wedding gown, the world's largest private collection of Madonna memorabilia takes up residence at the Old Truman Brewery in February.

The exhibition, Simply Madonna, features more than 300 personal items, from costumes to props, posters and photographs, brought together for the first time in a bid to tell the story of the pop icon's 25-year career.

The collection is owned by Marquee Capital, an investment firm specialising in celebrity memorabilia.

Curator Ted Owen said: "This is an unprecedented collection of Madonna memorabilia, that represents every stage of her glittering career.

"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.”

The exhibition runs from 21 February to 22 March at the Old Truman Brewery, E1.
