SUMMARY:Exhibition: Beyond Utility — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Yvonne Schichtel\, Trench Dress\, 2021. Photo courtesy of designer.\nFebruary 25–March 22\, 2026\nGoodman Center Lobby \nBeyond Utility\, curated by graduate students in the Fashion and Textile Studies: History\, Theory\, Museum Practice MA program in collaboration with The Museum at FIT\, examines the perpetual transformation of utilitarian design within and beyond the fashion system. Throughout history\, fashion and anti-fashion groups have adopted and abstracted clothing born out of necessity\, continuously negotiating between form and function. Showcasing never-before-displayed objects from the MFIT Study Collection and the FTS Graduate Study Collection\, the exhibition pairs utility dress archetypes with their later reinterpretations\, featuring designs from Issey Miyake\, BOY London\, Bonnie Cashin\, Junya Watanabe\, Burberry\, Moschino\, and more. \nThe case studies span three sections\, unbound by chronology: “Workwear: Beyond Labor\,” “Military: Beyond Combat\,” and “Craft: Beyond Domesticity\,” exploring the interplay between materials\, aesthetics\, and cultural connotations. By investigating objects that have unique biographies and lived-experiences\, Beyond Utility reveals how utility dress can shape ideas of style\, from factories and battlefields to runways and city streets. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Africa’s Fashion Heritage: Eight African Countries — Closes
DESCRIPTION:February 2–16\, Goodman Center Lobby\nFebruary 9–28\, Goodman Center\, Room D223  \nThis 3D virtual fashion exhibition presents 28 looks created by Professor Jennifer Lee\, Ph.D. (Fashion Business Management\, FIT). The exhibition brings together traditional African ensembles from prestigious museum collections alongside contemporary reinterpretations from The Museum at FIT\, curated by Elizabeth Way\, Ph.D.\, and designed by legendary fashion designers from eight African countries: Côte d’Ivoire\, the Democratic Republic of Congo\, Ethiopia\, Ghana\, Kenya\, Mali\, Nigeria\, and South Africa. \nEach look is meticulously 3D modeled and interwoven with the stories of cultural trailblazers whose lives and legacies have inspired global audiences. Together\, these works honor the richness\, innovation\, and enduring influence of African fashion\, preserving its cultural heritage for future generations. \nThis project is part of The Legacy: Diversity Meets Technology (founded in 2021)\, a collegewide experiential learning initiative that promotes multicultural diversity through emerging technologies.  \nInteractive 3D views for each garment are available at The Legacy 2026 website. \nWatch the project video on YouTube here. \nThe Goodman Lobby exhibition is free and open to the public.
