I check regularly on the programme of exhibition at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum (RAMM) and was interested to see that the travelling V&A fashion exhibition is in Exeter until September 2nd. I was going to see it last week but couldn't make it so I have decided to go today as I've always had an interest in fashion photography. I would have liked to go down that route but was never able to get a foothold so have watched from afar. Will report back on what I found later. Below is a link to 20th century fashion section at the V&A.

Blurb from the RAMM catalogue, quote:
'This exhibition explores the range of approaches to fashion
image-making from 1911 to 2011. It comprises nearly sixty photographs,
including many rarely exhibited and recently acquired works by more than
twenty photographers such as Edward Steichen, Irving Penn, David
Bailey, Corinne Day and Tim Walker. This is the first touring exhibition
from the V&A's Collection to showcase the work of international
fashion photographers and to draw together such a broad range of
important historic and contemporary fashion images. Exhibition organised by the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.' unquote
