Last Thursday, as part of my on-going birthday celebration, I took my friend Josy as my date to the opening of the American High Style exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum.
You might remember the last opening at the Brooklyn Museum I attended? Well this one wasn’t as cool, there was no Blondie performance, but the clothes were amazing. I thought I’d share some of them here.
There were the super old fashioned pieces…
This was Queen Victoria’s outfit
Then there were the dresses that make me wish I went to fabulous parties…
And then there’s the stuff from 50 or so years ago that I would happily wear today…
(Seriously, if someone knows where I can get a dress like this (maybe without the hem on the bottom) let me know, I am in love.)
And then there was some cool random stuff…
(Not Michael Jackson’s)
The description said something about how little dogs were very popular in the 1920s, oh how things never change.
So if you’re in New York City and want to see a great exhibit I definitely recommend checking this one out. And the Brooklyn Museum is a great place to visit any time. Plus it couldn’t be easier to get to from Manhattan, promise.
