Conservation Couture: The Animal Ball Collection

Elephant Family collaborated with the V&A to display an exclusive collection of couture masks, created by the world’s greatest fashion houses and inspired entirely by the animal kingdom

The masks were on display at the V&A for a limited time in an area of the Museum not usually open to the public, the Cupola. The display was a prelude to Elephant Family’s 2016 fundraising event, The Animal Ball.
