Clothes have long been political. 🧵
Replying to @dieworkwear
Even clothes have to be political. Ridiculous.

The print on Ekaterina Tkachenko's Cosmic Trash Bomber eludes to defunct man-made objects found in space #NJALShop

This could have been an early #VivienneWestwood design, reminiscent of her early collections, but it is in fact a chiffon layered gown dating to the late #1920s. It is longer in line and beginning to fit more closely to the body as the times changed once more @museumatFIT

#OTD in 2011, during the 40th anniversary of Apollo 15, command module pilot Al Worden visited his spacesuit at the Museum. He had last seen the spacesuit in 1974.

“On this 4th of July, SUNY Chancellor John B. King Jr. and the Board of Trustees salute the strength of a democracy that has served and defined the United States for nearly 250 years, and the integrity of a government that has been a beacon to the world in seeking to safeguard the rights, freedoms and prosperity of its people. "Public higher education plays a central role in the health of our nation, and we encourage all our students and every member of our communities to be civically active, to engage one another civilly, and to register and vote: doing so is the cornerstone of the engagement that is central to maintain the civic health of this great nation." suny.edu/suny-news/press-rel…

The plain fabric of this 1953 #Dior evening ensemble serves a purpose here, namely to sit quietly in the background whilst the sleeves do all of the showing off. The rich colour and unadorned cloth emphasise the origami-esque structure. Strike a pose and look aloof @museumatFIT

Happy to share my latest in Spanish, a brief dispatch for @smoda on the "Moda Hoy! Latin American and Latinx Fashion Design Today" show at the @museumatFIT. Identities are as multi-layered as culture, and this show proves that through the lens of fashion. smoda.elpais.com/moda/la-mod…

If you're visiting or residing in #NYC and are looking for a cool exhibit to experience, look no further than the @museumatFIT's "Moda Hoy". The exhibition spotlights designers from #LatinAmerica as well as designers of Latin American heritage. @REMEZCLA. remezcla.com/culture/moda-ho…

#LGBTQ History 6. b. Apr. 17, 1943, Tommy Nutter, Barmouth, Wales, British tailor, famous for reinventing the Saville Row suit in the 1960s, designer of the costumes worn by The Joker in the 1989 film “Batman.” d. 1992 of #AIDS
Do you know who Tommy Nutter is? His suits were famously worn by members of The Beatles and the Rolling Stones and he is one of the most iconic figures to occupy the overlap of menswear and music. insidehook.com/daily_brief/m…

I love the way that artist Ammi Philips captured dress. It isn’t lifelike in the sense of the sheen and fold of the fabric but in colour and dimension he sees these women in their everyday clothes. Painting 1830 in collection of P & B Goodman, dress @museumatFIT
