Description
Inspired by the MFIT exhibition Fashion Unraveled and organized by MFIT and the Fashion Research Network, this one-day colloquium explored the concepts of memory, wear, and imperfection in fashion. Speakers focused on imperfect garments and the significance of dressing as a habitual, intimate, and ephemeral act.
Colleen Hill is the curator of costume and accessories at MFIT. She holds an MA in Fashion and Textile Studies: History, Theory, Museum Practice from FIT. Since joining MFIT in 2006, Colleen has curated or co-curated a dozen exhibitions, including Fashion Unraveled (2018), Paris Refashioned, 1957-1968 (2017), Fairy Tale Fashion (2016), Exposed: A History of Lingerie (2014), and Shoe Obsession (2013).
