Join us for an evening of entertaining and informative lectures in honor of our special exhibition Pierre Cardin: Future Fashion. Drawing on Cardin’s legacy as an innovator, scholars and experts reflect on the history of fashion and imagine its future. In these short talks, Kimberly Jenkins examines fashion, race, innovation, and Pierre Cardin; Alexis Romano explores postwar French ready-to-wear style; and Claire Fleury discusses what it means to create vibrant fashion for a future that transcends gender. Between lectures, grab a drink from our cash bar sponsored by Stella Artois and catch musical sets by Elosi.

This event is free, but please RSVP (purchase tickets for Pierre Cardin: Future Fashion separately).
