Fashion D-Fined: The Past, Present and Future of Detroit Fashion

This exhibit will open on Saturday, August 29 in the Booth-Wilkinson Gallery at the Detroit Historical Museum. 

This exhibition will showcase 20th century fashion design and retail alongside the designers and grassroots fashion retailers of today, including costumes from the 1940s, 50s, 60s and even 70s from well-known retailers such as Hudsons, Himelhoch's and Winkelman's. 

Additionally, today's innovative Detroit designers and retailers will be highlighted. Legendary designers John Varvatos, Anna Sui, Tracy Reese and many more creative Detroiters who have made their mark locally and nationally will be featured, along with retailers like Carhartt and smaller boutique shops that are popping up throughout Detroit.

Visitors will see that Detroit design is so much more than cars!
