Mexican authorities are set to hold an exhibition with over 400 items showcasing international cinema's iconic spy British Secret Service agent James Bond.

Titled "Designing 007: 50 years of Bond style", the exhibition at Mexico City's Carso Plaza from the 23rd October to the 10th January, 2016, will display screenplays, draft scripts, sketches, firearms, photographs, audio and video fragments and wardrobe items among other exclusive original pieces, EFE news reported.

The exhibits are from the 24 films which brought the much-loved spy, created by novelist Ian Fleming in 1952, to life on the silver screen.

The collection, an initiative of London's Barbican Centre, was inaugurated in 2012 and has since toured many cities, including Toronto, Shanghai, Melbourne, Moscow, Rotterdam and Madrid.

For the exhibition, guest curators Bronwyn Cosgrave and Lindy Hemming worked closely with exhibition designer Ab Rogers to recreate a space, which would narrate the story of the iconic spy.
