Fashion Reimagined features 50 outstanding examples of fashionable
dress drawn entirely from the outstanding collection of the Mint
Museum, Charlotte, NC, including men's and women's fashions from
1760 to 2022. The book is divided into three sections that reflect
three aspects of historicism: Minimalism, Pattern and Decoration,
and The Body Reimagined. Each catalogue entry addresses a theme and
provides information and insights about the individual designers,
fabric and construction details, and globalization that is embedded
in both the textiles and fashions 1760 to the present. Ranging from
court suits to street wear, highlights include an English
18th-century sack back dress, two English men's court suits, early
19th-century printed cotton dresses, wedding dresses from the mid
and last quarter of the 19th century, as well as a rare 1920s
wedding ensemble by Roman fashion artist Maria Monaci Gallenga, a
very rare early 20th-century Ispahan mantle by Paul Poiret, an
unusual mid twentieth century Black Narcissus dress by American
designer James Galanos, several examples of 1960s and 70s mod and
hippie chic style, and innovative contemporary fashions by Giorgio
Armani, Romeo Gigli, Zandra Rhodes, Anna Sui, Yoji Yamamoto, Wale
Oyejide for Ikire Jones, Anamika Khanna, and Iris van Herpen, among
others.
