Unraveling the Mysteries of Textiles IN Artworks


A short introduction to the 2014-15 Docent Textile Core! I keep saying 'to know textiles is to know history'. 



A BBC Documentary about why clothes matter, why textiles matter and how fashion plays into it all. About an hour but worth every moment. 


This video is not about Ariel but it is about 100 years of fashion, music and dance in about 100 seconds!
Delightful to watch.


And finally a short clip of why the fashion arts ARE important.*The clip about the blue sweater is supposed to appear here. Every time I link to it, I get a video about corn chowder! If you Google 'blue sweater devil wears Prada' you'll get to it.
