SUMMARY:Exhibition: Soil to Surface — Closes
DESCRIPTION:Women’s cooperatives in a process of creating a plant-based paper-like material\, and a STUDIO BIRTANE lampshade made using that material. Images courtesy of Birnur Temel Birtane\, MILKist Social Design Center.\nSeptember 24–November 1\, 2026\nArt and Design Gallery \nSoil to Surface highlights the creations of small-scale women farmers\, women’s cooperatives\, and internationally recognized designers from Türkiye\, alongside the work of School of Art and Design students\, faculty\, and alumni at FIT. Proposing an alternative framework where farmers\, craftspeople\, and designers operate on equal ground\, the exhibition sees the FIT community actively reimagining these materials for contemporary design through technical experimentation and innovative thinking. \nAgricultural waste and local textile materials are repositioned in a contemporary context\, allowing multiple narratives to emerge across time and geographies\, while creating new paths for creative businesses to be local\, sustainable\, and value-driven. \nSoil to Surface is realized through a collaboration between MILKist Social Design Center and FIT\, and presented as part of the “Second Harvest” project\, developed in partnership with Anadolu Efes and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Türkiye. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.  \n More details at fitnyc.edu/gallery

SUMMARY:Fashion Culture: Suitable: The Sartorial Revolution and the Fashioning of Modern Men
DESCRIPTION:Image: Cover of Suitable courtesy of Oxford University Press.\nTwo hundred and fifty years after the American Revolution\, historian and costume designer Dr. Chloe Chapin traces the evolution of modern men’s suits to answer big questions about fashion. When men adopted plain\, dark\, uniform suits to symbolize rationality and modernity\, they simultaneously cast “fashion” as a superficial\, feminine pursuit. Suitable unpacks this hidden history to explore fundamental ideas about style\, identity\, and the architecture of power. \nA book signing will follow. \nFashion Culture programs are organized by The Museum at FIT to provide new perspectives on the culture of fashion. All programs are free unless otherwise indicated. However\, reservations are strongly encouraged\, as space is limited. See a full calendar of fall 2026 Fashion Culture Program events on the museum website. \nThis event is free and open to the public. \n REGISTER ON THE MFIT WEBSITE

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Doll Dressing — Closes
DESCRIPTION:oschino Couture (Jeremy Scott)\, trompe l’oeil printed jacket and skirt\, spring 2017\, museum purchases\, 2028.9.1-2.\nSeptember 16–January 3\, 2027\nThe Museum at FIT \nDoll Dressing centers on the longstanding connections between dolls and high fashion. Historically\, dolls operated as miniature fashion models—they were shipped around Europe and abroad\, communicating the latest styles in three-dimensional detail. By the early 20th century\, dolls were not merely sharing the latest trends\, but setting them. Curated by Dr. Colleen Hill\, senior curator of costume\, the exhibition explores the ways in which dolls have influenced fashion and dressed appearance. \nDoll dressing takes many forms\, ranging from the appeal of youthful baby doll dresses\, to the 2D quality of “paper doll” looks\, to the influence of creepy dolls on fashion. It encompasses clothing and accessories\, hair and makeup\, and even movement and gestures that take their cue from dolls. Beginning with a brief history of fashion dolls from the 18h century to the present\, Doll Dressing continues with designs from Marc Jacobs\, Patrick Kelly\, Lanvin\, Jeremy Scott for Moschino\, Martin Margiela\, Anna Sui\, and many others. \n Find out more on the museum website\nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.

The exhibition will be organized thematically\, bringing together works by both designers that reveal shared aesthetics and ideas. With fluid boundaries and bilingual texts\, these sections will allude to the binational origins of the creators. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.
