The Australian National Maritime Museum is inviting budding fashionistas and swimwear enthusiasts to its 'fashion forum' on swimwear on Friday 4 September to find out more about what goes into creating the ultimate 'cozzie'.

The fashion forum will see Sydney-based designers Anna Hewett and Lill Boyd of renowned swimwear label Anna & Boy talk about their own swimwear design process and what it's really like working within the Australian fashion industry.

The two designers will also discuss their design for the museum's 'Woollen Mermaid' challenge featured in the museum's current exhibition Exposed! The story of swimwear.

The fashion forum is held in conjunction with the exhibition Exposed! The story of swimwear.
