Teasing the upcoming event via its official website, the V&A said the show "pays tribute to Walker's distinctive contribution to image-making, while also exploring the work of his creative collaborators. It will shine a light on the important roles played by set designers, stylists, make-up artists, models and muses, who all help bring Walker's unique ideas to life".
Walker, who shot his first Vogue story when he was 25, has contributed works to a number of fashion publications, including Vogue, W and Harper's Bazaar throughout his star-studded career, and has photographed celebrities from Tilda Swinton to Kate Moss.
