Australian wool has come a long way. Two hundred years after the first bale of wool was exported to England, Australia has become the world's leading producer of fine Merino wool - generating half a billion kilograms of fleece a year.
Fashion from fleece: 200 years of Australian wool in fashion is a unique exhibition that looks back at two dynamic centuries of Australian wool in fashion, retail, and global trade.
At the Powerhouse Museum, 500 Harris St Ultimo, Sydney, Fashion from Fleece showcases vintage and contemporary fashion from leading local and international designers.
