Rise and shine, sleeping beauties ✨ Learn from Andrew Bolton, Curator in Charge of The Costume Institute, on exactly what qualities make an object a “sleeping beauty.” See these fragile garments reawakened and on view in our new exhibition, “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.” #ReawakeningFashion
It was such a privilege and one of the best experiences of my life to view the contents of the lateral files at the Institute as a student. Thank you Costume Institute for all you do to preserve these incredible works of art.
love the video... so beautiful... yes, it is what encompasses a sleeping beauty etc ... beautiful detailing ...
What if an original copy was produced to exhibit the true dimensions and beauty of this garment? The design on the front low part of it is so imaginative and inspired.
Dresses like this are truly works of art

3moOne of my fondest memories of attending FIT was our visits to the Costume Department in the Library where literal fashion gems were stored. Harold Koda was running the show there at the time in his starched white coat and adidas Stan Smiths...we'd all wear gloves and he would bring out pieces that would take your breath away. Such an honor and a privilege to have shared the same air as so many works of art. I feel like I'm going to need an oxygen tank when I see all of these sleeping beauties as I may faint from excitement! Can't wait!
