Friday December 3 10:30 - 11:30 am. In America: A Lexicon of Fashion, a docent-led tour from the NYC The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The Costume Institute's In America: A Lexicon of Fashion, launches a two-part exploration of fashion in the United States in the Anna Wintour Costume Center. It establishes a modern vocabulary of American fashion based on its expressive qualities. This portion of the 2-part exhibition uses the organizing principle of a patchwork quilt. A signature quilt begun in 1856 from The Met's American Wing collection opens the show, and serves as a metaphor for the United States and its varied cultural identities. Approximately 100 men's and women's ensembles by a diverse range of designers from the 1940s to the present are featured. Enclosed in scrimmed cases that represent three-dimensional "patches" of a quilt, they are organized into 12 sections that explore defining emotional qualities: Nostalgia, Belonging, Delight, Joy, Wonder, Affinity, Confidence, Strength, Desire, Assurance, Comfort, and Consciousness.
Collaboration between Little Falls Village and Friendship Heights Neighbors Network.
Fee: $10.00 per zoom screen. Register & Payment by November 22.
