几年前，希拉里·克林顿(Hillary Clinton)在回答记者询问她对时尚的偏好时说：“如果我是个男人，你会问我这个问题吗？”当然，这位记者的回答是防御性的，但克林顿的反应背后的原因远比表面看起来更深刻、更有趣。如今，在设计博物馆展出的“女性时尚力量”(NotMultipleOptions)(“不是一种多重选择”，标题的“站立第一”)用服装展示来审视这种紧张关系，这些服装帮助塑造了多年来强健成功的女性的身份。

不言而喻，女性时装在历史上比男性具有更强烈的文化影响：紧身衣、长裤和剪影随着时间的推移而进化。过去，女性被限制在最具限制性的服装中，而最近的餐桌似乎已经变了。

今天，女性的时尚充满了文化、社会和艺术的意义-比男装更有本质意义。它驱动强大的个性，并直接贡献给他们的身份。联合策划展览的时尚记者科林·麦克道尔(ColinMcDowell)说，这次展览很大程度上是关于服装的现实。他说，这场展览的目的不是定义一场运动，而是展示“聪明的女性是如何从时尚中获取她们所需要的”。

展览遵循两个不同的主题，播放的节目标题。在一端，名为“权力与时尚”和“时尚与女性”的房间展示了从伊芙到今天的女性服装的视觉历史，并附有标志性的服装、照片和历史文件。第三间也是最后一间名为“女人与权力”的房间关闭了这个圈，里面有26位当代女性和她们选择的代表她们的衣服。

不同的群体包括政治、文化、娱乐和社会领域的妇女，从歌手皮到巴黎市长安妮·伊达尔戈，从艺术策展人朱莉娅·佩顿-琼斯到建筑师扎哈·哈德曼。
展出的服装来自他们的个人服装，对于在他们对世界的影响中发挥了重要作用。

哈迪德也帮助塑造了节目本身。她的室内设计-连同卢西安罗伯茨的图形-支持麦克道尔和设计博物馆馆长唐娜Loveday的工作。虽然哈迪德的结构在几乎不引人注意的空间划分中起着关键作用，但罗伯茨的动态图形在光、色和Perspex的呼喊中没有问题。展览的标题激励罗伯茨在一个移动的装置中将“女人”、“时尚”和“权力”这三个关键词交叉在一起。这是对表演中的力量的恰当庆祝。

The show follows two divergent themes, playing on the show's title. At one end, rooms named 'Power and Fashion' and 'Fashion and Women' display a visual history of women's clothing from Eve to the present day, with iconic garments, photographs and historical documents. Photography: Mirren Rosie

The third and final room, called 'Women and Power', closes the circle, featuring 26 contemporary women and the clothes they've chosen to represent them. Photography: Mirren Rosie
