Fashion school

I skived off last Friday to attend Valerie Steele’s talk on fashion in the museum at Copenhagen’s Museum of Art and Design. Dr. Steele’s lecture gave an excellent overview of the history of the fashion exhibition and, of course, the sometimes slightly problematic discourse surrounding fashion’s place in the dusty museum halls.

It was a full house: Peter Jensen was there, as was Jens Laugesen and Danish Fashion Institute’s Eva Kruse.

More of this, please. One of the highlights of Copenhagen Fashion Week, I think.
