Welcome to Reimagined Fashion: Creations of the Future Past – where the design traditions of our vibrant city kindled the joy of creation for a new group of artists.
For the past 18 months, local designers were invited to take inspiration from our collections and create something new. Representing different facets of our creative community, these makers come from a variety of artistic backgrounds, with unique methods of expression and a diverse range of imaginative perspectives. Some of the best and brightest in our region, these artisans showcase talents from dressmaking to jewelry design; from sole proprietors working out of home studios to teams with brick-and-mortar businesses.
We are thrilled to honor the talent in our artistic community by pairing examples of historic craftsmanship from our collection alongside their new creative works. As you journey through the gallery, we hope you will find points of connection between yourself, the designers, and the objects that spoke to them. Here, the rich visual legacy of our past has ignited the creative minds shaping our future.
