Force of Nature - Museum at FIT

"Force of Nature" was an exhibit that recently closed at the Museum at FIT. This show examined how the beauty and complexity of the natural world has been inspiring fashion designers for centuries. The exhibition placed more than 95 objects from MFIT’s permanent collection, dating from the 18th century to the present, within a context of period philosophies and scientific literature in order to demonstrate the deep interconnectedness between fashion and nature. Shown above are designs that were inspired by butterflies, under sea life and flowers. https://www.fitnyc.edu/museum/exhibitions/force-of-nature.php
