Exclusive preview of Daphne Guinness's wardrobe exhibition

Melissa Whitworth gets a sneak peek at the heiress's wonderful clothing collection, which will go on display at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York next month.

There is a room called "the laboratory" at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), New York's own Central Saint Martins. Here, a team of 30 preservationists, curators and seamstresses have spent the last two years preparing for an exhibition of Daphne Guinness's vast wardrobe, which will open to the public on September 17.
