Art - Charles James at The Met

LA to New York the movie was COCO BEFORE CHANEL, lovely picture that got me ready for Charles James stunning show at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. 

Arranged in two different parts of the museum so there is plenty of room to walk around the dresses and observe the seams from all angles. One part is set up with cameras that point to specific areas of the dress while you watch a mini movie showing how that particular dress was made.  Fabulous use of technology. 



No photos inside. Pity.
