Costume Art examines representations of the dressed body across the museum’s collection, pairing garments with artworks to consider the relationship between clothing and the body. Focusing largely on Western art from prehistory to the present, it brings together fashion and objects from multiple departments. The pairings are organized around recurring body types that have persisted across time and cultures.
