Behind the Seams: Fashioning Gender

Saturday, May 11, 2024
11 am – 12 pm

1 – 2 pm 2 – 3 pm

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 programs@mohai.org two weeks before the program.

Location: Norcliffe Conference Room

Cost: $35 General Public; $15 Members; $20 Student
