This exhibit of "parallel practices in fashion and architecture" is a stunning representation of trends that combine structure and texture to create form. Cross uses of materials that seem unlikely make powerful impressions in both apparel and structural objects. Unfortunately, I was not as impressed as the critics. I am sure it is my ignorance of such matters, but the only thing that interested me were the nude models in Burkas, an idea that I had wanted to do for some time which now seems redundant. My wife who is a costume designer on the other hand went twice to the show to fully capture its extensive information, enjoying it completely each time.
