Together with numerous film clips, Designing 007: Fifty Years of Bond Style presents an unequalled multimedia experience of the world of James Bond.

Featuring over 500 unforgettable objects: Roger Moore?s white tuxedo from Octopussy (1983) and his Spacesuit from Moonraker (1979); the orange bikini worn by Halle Berry in Die Another Day (2002); Scaramanga?s Golden Gun from The Man with the Golden Gun (1974); Jaws? fearsome teeth which first appeared in The Spy Who Loved Me (1977); gadgets from ?Q branch? including the attaché case featured in From Russia with Love (1963); and the 1964 silver Aston Martin DB5 from GoldenEye (1995) which famously returned to the screen in 2012?s Skyfall.

The exhibition will be accompanied by a lavishly illustrated catalogue, with essays by exhibition curators and Ian Fleming biographer.

The exhibition has been formed with exclusive material from the archives of EON Productions on commission from the Barbican, London by guest curator Bronwyn Cosgrave, Oscar®-winning costume-designer Lindy Hemming, and designer Ab Rogers.
