From March 26, 2026, to January 3, 2027, ITS Arcademy – Museum of Art in Fashion in Trieste will present Exposure – The Power of Being Seen, from Harry Styles to Lady Gaga, an exhibition exploring the creative force of styling in contemporary culture. Curated by Belgian stylist Tom Eerebout, whose long-standing collaboration with Lady Gaga has helped redefine the relationship between fashion, performance, and celebrity image, the exhibition offers an insider’s view into the making of iconic looks.
From concept and fittings to staging and public appearance, Exposure reveals styling as a powerful practice that shapes identity, narrative, and visual memory. Bringing together historic fashion houses, independent designers, and emerging talents — including figures represented in the ITS Collection — the exhibition highlights the collaborative nature of image-making across music, cinema, and pop culture. In an age when images are increasingly constructed rather than simply captured, Exposure invites viewers to reflect on fashion as a lens through which to read the present and question the fragile boundary between representation and truth.
