                                 Minimalism/Maximalism
                               Fashion & Textile History Gallery

Fashion’s world of extremes, where sartorial expression ranges from the simple to the elaborate, is presented in one of The Museum at FIT’s 50th anniversary shows, Minimalism/Maximalism, the first museum exhibition specifically devoted to the historical relationship between minimalist and maximalist aesthetics in fashion. After years of being driven by minimalist fashion (championed by Phoebe Philo), fashion is experiencing a rise in maximalist design … while some fashion trendsetters are already predicting the imminent return of minimalism — again. This has prompted conversations around minimalist vs. maximalist aesthetics across varied disciplines from fashion to interior design. Yet even though they represent opposing principles, the two aesthetics are inextricably linked to one another, as well as to the times in which they occur.

The Cost of the trip includes the transportation, morning snack, lunch, afternoon smoothie, hot coco or snack.
