The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion

The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion captures the essence of fashion models from the last half of the 20th century while delving into fashion photography, clothing, and the ways that the best models defined and inspired their respective generations—from the '60s boho beauty of Veruschka to the '90s skin-and-bones heroin chic of Kate Moss. Presented by Marc Jacobs and the Costume Institute, the exhibition features about 70 masterworks of haute couture and ready-to-wear through video footage, photography, and advertising
