So who wants to go on a field trip to the MET❤️ #Repost @metcostumeinstitute ・・・ “In America: An Anthology of Fashion" ✨ Opening May 7, the second in our two-part #MetInAmerica exhibition, staged in the @metmuseum’s American Wing period rooms, explores the foundations of American fashion through a series of sartorial displays featuring individual designers and dressmakers working in the United States from the 19th to the mid-late 20th centuries. Inspired by the vision of Met curators from The #CostumeInstitute and @metamericanwing, nine film directors will create fictional cinematic vignettes, or “freeze frames,” that share new perspectives on American fashion. These mise-en-scènes will reveal the role of dress in shaping the diverse nature of American identities and exploring the layered histories of these room settings. Contributing directors include Janicza Bravo, Sofia Coppola, Julie Dash, Tom Ford, Regina King, Martin Scorsese, Autumn de Wilde, Chloé Zhao and Radha Blank. Tap the link in bio to dive deeper into the exhibition and its many dynamic elements that tell a complex story of American fashion. // Ball gown, Marguery Bolhagen (American, 1920–2021), ca. 1961; Brooklyn Museum Costume Collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Gift of the Brooklyn Museum, 2009; Gift of Mrs. William Randolph Hearst, Jr., 1966 (2009.300.2556a, b).
