SUMMARY:Exhibition: It’s a Kid’s World! Play\, Imagine\, Create — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Illustration by Bonnie Wong.\nAugust 9–September 3\, 2024\nArt and Design Gallery \nWhen designing for young children it is important to experience the world as they do. This form of empathy allows for deeper sense connection and understanding. \nIt’s a Kid’s World! Play\, Imagine\, Create embraces the imagination of a child and what it means to design for young audiences. In this exhibition\, play\, inquiry\, and wonder take center stage\, through interactive and educational components designed to engage visitors and showcase the work of FIT students in Fashion Design (Children’s Wear)\, Toy Design\, Illustration\, Textile/Surface Design\, and Footwear and Accessories Design. \nIn the back gallery\, a selection of work from a special project by the nonprofit adoption services organization Spence-Chapin titled “Dear Future: Elevating Children’s Voices” highlights the stories of a group of children residing in an orphanage in Cali\, Colombia. Featuring photography\, video work\, and vibrant costumes\, the project explores the possibilities that emerge when vulnerable children are given the space to dream. \n\nAbout the Art and Design Gallery \nThe Art and Design Gallery brings together the work of FIT students\, faculty\, alumni\, and invited outside artists in every exhibition. The gallery\, located in the glass-walled lobby of FIT’s Pomerantz Center\, is a window into the college and a window out\, serving as a space to foster learning and innovation. \nThe gallery is open 9 am to 5 pm daily. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Statement Sleeves — Closes
DESCRIPTION:Madame Grès\, evening gown (detail)\, navy blue silk taffeta\, circa 1980\, France\, gift of Mrs. Mildred Hilson\, 82.234.3\nDecember 6\, 2023–August 25\, 2024\nFashion and Textile History Gallery \nWhether puffed\, ruffled\, split\, or sheer\, statement sleeves have been a ubiquitous fashion trend for the past decade. These dramatic\, contemporary creations can enliven and update a wardrobe\, yet many current sleeve styles have cycled in and out of fashion for decades\, if not centuries. Although sleeves can be especially challenging to make\, they also inspire countless creative ideas. \nStatement Sleeves takes an original approach to the history of fashion. The selected garments date from the 18th century to the present\, but they are not presented chronologically. They are instead organized by type. Following an introduction to basic sleeve shapes—from gigot to raglan—visitors will encounter the myriad ways in which designers have reinterpreted and remixed sleeves through variations in material\, shape\, embellishment\, and even functionality. More than 60 styles\, all from the museum’s permanent collection\, emphasize how sleeves hold the power to define a look—in both the past and present. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.
