Textiles are in the spotlight with two exhibitions currently running in London. Orla Kiely: A Life in Pattern is at the Fashion and Textile Museum in Bermondsey, while Enid Marx, a woman once hailed as ‘Britain’s queen of patterns’, has the first show in 40 years dedicated to her work, at the House of Illustration in north London. Both end on September 23.
