needs more space. i thought the clothes and set up was beautiful, yet i felt like there was a lack of a celebratory feeling to it all.

I loved most of the dresses, hats, and shoes. The curtain hat was very interesting and I wan't to make one.

Error in your caption for the "Gone with the Wind" hat: Scarlett was going to visit Rhett in jail; he was not coming to visit her at Tara.

The tour guide said that one of the beachwear garments had smiley faces printed on them-
it doesn't. it's buttons on fastenings,
you should fix that mistake next time.

The Claire McCardell 1944 bathing costume is indeed made from a print with tiny smiley faces - but you have to look very closely! Hope you enjoyed the rest of the exhibition.

Beautiful exhibit! I just wish that there was more of a 360 view available of the dreses - it is so important to see the back as well as the front, and it would be great if that were possible without having to crane your neck :)

NICE SHOW BUT SOME OF THE DRESSES DO NOT FIT THE MANEQUINS WELL. THEREFORE ONE DOESNT SEE THE SHAPE THE DESIGNER HAD IN MIND FIOR THE DRESS. SUCH IS THE CASE WITH THE BELENCIAGA DRESS IN THE NEXT ROOM.
