HOTA Collects: Made in Surfers Paradise

This HOTA Collects exhibition explores the vibrant fashions of Surfers Paradise in the 1950s and 60s.

There through a newly commissioned film, we discover the story of six incredible women who brought fashion to the Gold Coast and, in doing so, turned a laid-back seaside town into a cavalcade of golden girls in bikinis, fabulous resort wear and glamorous evening wear fit for poolside cocktail parties.
