https://www.udel.edu/alumni-friends/alumni-weekend/ #BlueHensForeverJoin us for special tours of the exhibition Blank Canvas: 1920s Fashion to explore how the chemise silhouette offered limitless creative possibilities for conveying the 1920s zeitgeist. The apparel emerged as armor for the new modern woman, providing a platform to communicate their identity and ideals.
The exhibition showcases more than 60 garments from the Fashion and Textile Collection in the Department of Fashion and Apparel Studies along with digital twins—virtual reproductions of selected fragile garments.
Led by co-curators Dilia Lopez-Gydosh, Belinda T. Orzada and Kelly Cobb, tours will be offered at 11:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m., and the exhibition will be open for alumni and the general public to view from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
