Press Release:

Fashion communicates much as words do. It tells a story.

In this collection of fashionable art, you'll find perfectly articulated kimonos in the woodblock prints of Katsushika Hokuyo, inky dark dress folds by Letterio Calapai and Jared French, George Platt Lynes' ingenious lighting of layered taffeta, vibrant traditional Mexican garments represented by Carlos Merida, the illustrative styling of Jacek Von Henneberg, and the everlasting elegance of Robert Freeman's cocktail attired subjects. 

Peruse through Dress Up: Fashion in Art like an issue of Vogue. The exhibition is available to view on our website through July 31, 2025.

On exhibit until July 31st, 2025
