How do design, invention, and activism intersect to create fashion that invites us to imagine a more sustainable future? Join us for a panel discussion surrounding sustainability in the fashion industry. We’ll hear from the scientists and artist behind a contemporary piece of swimwear inspired by Doris Duke and currently on view in the Doris Duke Fashion Gallery.
In partnership with our friends at Charter Books, join us for an event with author Dr. Elizabeth Block as she shares the details and stories that bring garments to life, revealing the personal narratives and politics that shape American clothing.
The evening will begin with an unveiling of a new rotation of fashion objects from Doris Duke’s wardrobe on view in our special exhibition Fashioning Resiliency: Doris Duke’s Legacy of Conservation, followed by an illustrative talk by Dr. Elizabeth Block. Dr. Block will be on hand after the talk to sign and personalize copies of her book.
