Is Fashion Art?
Who better to consider the question “Is fashion art?” than Valerie Steele, a writer, fashion historian, and director and chief curator of the Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Dr. Steele will do so at the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill tomorrow at 6 p.m. in a talk that will explore how the exhibition of fashion in museums has blurred the line between art and fashion and how fashion designers, curators, and critics weigh in on the subject. A question-and-answer session will follow the lecture. Tickets are $12, free for members and students.
