Exhibit: Fashion Around the World


SCSU Multicultural Center and Art 309: Arts of Africa Present

 

Priceless Beauties: Fashion Around the World

 

Priceless Beauties: Fashion Around the World is an exhibit that celebrates fashion as an art form. As the most portable of the visual arts, it both reflects cultural origins and inspires new forms in human expression.

The clothing and accessories of the exhibit range from the traditional to the contemporary. Showcasing designs that are stylish and functional, the exhibit contains dresses from Mali, a child's applique apron from the United States, Peruvian jewelry, a boy's soccer uniform from Bamako, and much more.
