Join Paola Antonelli and guests for the second and final part of a two-day event that opens dialogue around the upcoming exhibition Items: Is Fashion Modern? Twenty-six iconic garments, accessories, and issues from the fashion universe, spanning the early 20th century to the present, will be discussed in a daylong abecedarium on Monday, May 16. A dynamic roster of designers, curators, critics, scholars, labor activists, and entrepreneurs will explore these topics—one for each letter of the alphabet—in seven minute vignettes.
