All power to the Showgirl Princess

As a reward to myself for getting up at stupid-o’-clock to catch the London train, I went to see Kylie: The Exhibition at the V&A today.
It mostly comprises costumes from her tours and video shoots (that woman is tiny if her frocks are anything to go by) and they were fabulous – but it was almost as interesting to watch the incredibly wide range of visitors touring round with me.
There were kids who couldn’t have even been alive in Kylie’s Neighbours era on a school trip, people like me skiving off on a work day, tourists, lots of wheelchair users and their carers and a very chilled out guide dog asleep on the floor. It felt very welcoming and inclusive which, lets face it, is a bit unusual for a museum. All power to the showgirl princess.
