A Great Refresher in Fabrics at FIT

FIT in NYC has a great exhibit on fibers and fabrics up until May 4th 2019. But have no fear if you can't make it to "The Big Apple" before then, FIT Museum is an amazing organization and resource that posts their exhibits online once they have passed!

What I like about this exhibit is the layout is intuitive and a great refresher for designers and clothing history enthusiasts alike. From why bias cut charmeuse is the perfect silk for a 1920s dress to how designers have worked to create couture fabrics for specific fashion lines; the lay out of the exhibition flows brilliantly.
