Friday Photos: Art & Fashion Teacher Workshop
Last Saturday, eleven teachers joined us for the Art & Fashion teacher workshop. Teachers spent two hours in The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk, and it was great to have the exhibition all to ourselves (the Museum wasn’t open to the public yet)! We also spent time discussing fashion in our Colonial American galleries, as well as the exhibition African Headwear: Beyond Fashion. I would have to say that the highlight of the day for me was a visit to the costume shop at the Wyly Theater. Christie Vela, who not only works at the Dallas Theater Center but is also an actress and freelance costume designer, shared the secrets of how a costume goes from an idea to a garment on stage. Below are photos from our day-long look at art & fashion.
