SUMMARY:Exhibition: Statement Sleeves — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Madame Grès\, evening gown (detail)\, navy blue silk taffeta\, circa 1980\, France\, gift of Mrs. Mildred Hilson\, 82.234.3\nJanuary 24\, 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Love Thy Neighbor’Hood — Opens
DESCRIPTION:“The Luxury of Knowing Me\,” by Toluwani Adesanya\nJanuary 24–February 11\, 2024\nGallery FIT\, The Museum at FIT \nWhat is a home? How do we view the communities that shaped us into who we are today? \nFor Black History Month\, students from the FIT Black Student Union present Love Thy Neighbor’Hood\, an exhibition that illustrates the dynamics of home and what that means to each artist. From an outside perspective\, many predominantly black neighborhoods are viewed as dangerous and scary places\, where nothing good ever comes about. These artists are challenging that narrative through their art. The exhibit features works of varying mediums created by people of a wide-range of backgrounds across the diaspora. \nThis event is part of the FIT Diversity Collective’s Black History Month activities; for a full schedule of activities\, visit fitnyc.edu/blackhistory. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.
