Pink for girls? Pants for boys? From color to cut, what we wear is infused with our era’s ideas about gender.
Designers may emphasize “masculine” or “feminine” elements on a garment or create a “unisex” look, but the rules around what those words mean change over time. Join Curator of Collections, Clara Berg, for an intimate in-person, one-hour session to view historic fashions in MOHAI’s collection which align with, deviate from, and expand our ideas about gendered clothing.
CART captioning is available during the program. In addition, a limited number of Assistive Listening Devices are available upon request. For more accessibility support, contact [email protected] two weeks before the program.
11 am – 12 pm, 1 – 2 pm, or 2 – 3 pm
