“Fashion & Politics” at the Museum at FIT (through Nov 7)
Proving that fashion is more than inconsequential fluff, this exhibit examines clothing’s possibility to effect social change. The pieces on view represent a variety of designers (including Catherine Malandrino and Vivienne Tam) and show how patriotism plays out through clothing (paper dresses in favor of a particular presidential candidate, for example).
