SUMMARY:Exhibition: Paris\, Capital of Fashion — Closes
DESCRIPTION:John Galliano\, ensemble\, spring/summer 1992\, England\, museum purchase.\nSeptember 6\, 2019–January 4\, 2020  \n\n\nParis\, Capital of Fashion will explore how and why Paris became the international capital of fashion. It will feature approximately 75 fashion ensembles\, dating from the 18th century to the present\, as well as accessories. Curated by Dr. Valerie Steele\, director of The Museum at FIT\, this major exhibition will be accompanied by a book and symposium. \nThe introductory gallery will place Paris within the global fashion system. After the Second World War\, Paris was repeatedly challenged by new fashion centers\, such as London\, Milan\, and New York. The first section of the main gallery will focus on the rise of the Paris fashion system in the late 17th and 18th centuries. The court at Versailles was the official epicenter of fashion\, but fashion professionals were based in the city of Paris and foreign visitors were amazed by the Parisian “mania” for fashion. The second section will explore the growth of the Paris fashion system with its many métiers de la mode and its increased focus on feminine fashion. Particular attention will be paid to the development of the haute couture\, which transformed dressmaking from a small-scale artisanal craft into big business and high art. Today\, globalization and technology have transformed the world of fashion. Yet Paris remains a unique fashion city. \n\nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.
