Met museum’s Costume Institute shows have ranged from the fantastical to the esoteric
, this year’s deep dive into fashion in America not only felt timely, but necessary as well. American fashion has long been seen as more commercial and practically minded than its European counterparts, but the exhibition ‘In America: A Lexicon of American Fashion’ proves that fantasy and emotion are well-established qualities in fashion on this side of the pond too.
The first of a two-part, year-long extravaganza, ‘In America: A Lexicon of American Fashion’ opens with a display of 100 garments dating from 1940 to the present day, set in an installation design inspired by a patchwork quilt.
Organised into 12 sections that seek to define the emotional qualities in American fashion, such as Nostalgia, Belonging, Joy and Strength, each exhibit is accompanied by a headpiece designed by Stephen Jones featuring a word summing up a corresponding sentiment, thus forming a comprehensive visual dictionary.
