A lively and engaging retrospective look at wearable art as it has grown and changed over the past 35 years.The exhibition of approximately 100 objects will chart the genre's development from embroidered and crocheted hippie style, to grand, one-of-a-kind woven, knitted, and dyed garments that are equally at home on the body and on the wall, to the more fashion-oriented works of the 1990s.
