“Framing Fashion Fantasies: Windows Into…”
January 18 – March 9, 2025

Organized by NYU Costume Studies Masters Candidates.

“Framing Fashion Fantasies: Windows Into…” critically engaged with the fantasies constructed by the fashion industry, designers, and consumers.

The group exhibition aimed to critique and celebrate how fashion creates aspirational dreams and unsettling realities, simultaneously producing and deconstructing the notion of an idealized fantasy.

“Framing Fashion Fantasies: Windows Into…” is curated by the NYU Costume Studies Masters Candidates: Zoé Berteloot, Haley Brown, Kelly Flynn, Marissa Motley, Gillani Peets, and Erin Shaw, under the direction of Stephanie Kramer, Senior Research Associate at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute.
