Scope and Contents

Ms. Smith reviews the exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum titled "Wordrobe," which "delves into the different ways that language has infiltrated clothing, or what the show's curator, Richard Martin, calls the reconciliation of textile and text." The article depicts two examples, viz., Pauline Trigere's "Trigiere Coat" from 1973 and a 1990 wool jersey dress by Christian Francis Roth. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
