While fashion students have transitioned to remote learning and museum
exhibitions have been postponed, fashion schools’ museums from New York,
California to Georgia have curated a number of online exhibitions to keep
their communities inspired. Why not spend time on lockdown wisely and brush
up on fashion knowledge through these free virtual tours?

The Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising Museum in LA
The FIDM Museum Permanent Collection contains 15,000 objects
representing over 200 years of fashion history, from haute couture,
ready-to-wear to non-Western dress, film costumes and even fragrance. Two
major archives—Rudi Gernreich and Gianni Versace Menswear—are highlights of
the museum’s collection. Karl Lagerfeld for Chloé SS84: An Homage to
Dressmaking from the Michel Arnaud Archive and the Art of Television
Costume Design are some of the current online exhibitions available to
virtual visitors.
The Museum at FIT at home
New Yorkers may be entering week eight of work-from-home orders and to
offer escape while being educational, The Museum at FIT continues to
inspire-even digitally. They’ve added more than 90 new objects to their
online collections, from the 18th century to the 2000s, from Gilbert Adrian
to Yohji Yamamoto. A relevant online exhibition from its 2016 archive is
aptly titled Uniformity which spotlights the distinctive nurse
uniform-developed during the mid-19th century to outfit students of newly
formed nursing schools.
SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion and Film
Located in Atlanta, the Savannah College of Art and Design’s fashion
museum has started a #MuseumfromHome initiative. Each week, SCAD chooses a
unique designer from its archive to spotlight virtually. From Pierre
Cardin’s 2018 exhibition Pursuit of the Future to designers Patrick Kelly
and AzzedineAlaïa, there are enough dynamic exhibitions, online video
interviews and more to learn about fashion and film’s symbiosis throughout
history.
