Drawn from Kylie’s spectacular stage wardrobe which is part of the Arts Centre Melbourne’s Australian Performing Arts Collection, Kylie on Stage is a major touring exhibition that includes dozens of magnificent costumes dating back to 1989 as well as those from more recent tours such as Kylie Aphrodite Les Folies in 2011.

National and international designers are featured, including Dolce and Gabbana, Jean Paul Gaultier, Karl Lagerfeld, Mark Burnett and Peter Morrissey. The exhibition also features a selection of designs, working drawings, and video footage that explore the creative process behind each costume and provide rare glimpses into the world backstage.

The WA Maritime Museum in Fremantle, Western Australia, will host the exhibition until 9 Jun and marks the tour’s final stop following installations in regional Victoria’s Mildura Arts Centre, Geelong Gallery, Ararat Gallery TAMA and Latrobe Regional Gallery.

In addition to the exhibition, fans will also have the chance to celebrate all things Kylie with a series of fabulous pop-up events.

Kylie on Stage is proudly presented by Arts Centre Melbourne and the Australian Music Vault and supported by Creative Victoria. The principal partner for the WA show is DFO Perth.
