The Making of an Exhibition: “Dress Up”

In this virtual event, Emily Stoehrer, Rita J. Kaplan and Susan B. Kaplan Curator of Jewelry; and theo tyson, Penny Vinik Curator of Fashion Arts, provide a behind-the-scenes look at the research and planning process for a future exhibition that explores clothing and jewelry as a means for creating and communicating public personas and personal identities. The presentation and the exhibition draw from the breadth of our collection of 20th- and 21st-century fashion and jewelry, including works from a recent gift of vintage costume jewelry from Carole Tanenbaum.
