Library’s October Brown Bag Session Highlighting Fashion

FRAMINGHAM – The October Framingham Public Library’s Brown Bag Learning Series will highlight fashion.

The session is on Friday, October 1 at noon.

Catherine Byrne, a faculty member at The Danforth Museum, who conduct the virtual one-hour tour.

The one hour program will be on Zoom.

Take a virtual walk through time to see how people have expressed themselves through the cultural language of fashion—from the earliest known “fashion magazines” to the dawn of haute couture. Learn fun facts such as why the bustle, popular in the late 1800s, was thought of as liberating and the way in which designers have collaborated with artists and muses. You’ll learn what fashion can reveal about the times and the fascinating stories of the people living through them.

Pre-registration is required.
