So I already reviewed this exhibit, but I went back recently and it’s been updated with new pieces! Why would they do this? The only reason I can come up with is because part two of the exhibit (that came out a few weeks ago) was so revoltingly done that they had to save face. Makes sense! Favourites ahead.
Are we kidding here? All those shades of lilac? Heavenly and way too much fun.
Warmth & elegance at once!
I think my favourite part of this one is the neckline. One day necklines will be deemed important again and on that day, I will rejoice.
This yellow frock SHOULD seem matronly, but somehow it isn’t? The simple sweetness of it is contagious.
If there isn’t humour in fashion, we might as well all kill ourselves.
Honestly kind of shocked we haven’t seen Rihanna wear this yet. Oh to be taking an accidental nap on a porch swing in this beauty.
A definite favourite of this whole collection, it’s so full of whimsy. A walking garden, what could be better.
I really did gasp at this one as soon as I saw it. Romantic, modern pieces like this make me believe in magic. It reminded me immediately of the Rodarte piece (that was displayed in this same exhibit late last year). Breath-taking, even with the basic-ness of the top - it’s letting the skirt shine even stronger.
God, this would be fun to wear. It’s kind of insane alone (still beautiful), but with some giant long coat on top? Or, oh god, something with feathers?? You’d be unstoppable.
I spent at least five minutes staring at this one. It’s fucking ART.
God, this whole updated collection was incredible. It’s wild what proper lighting and display areas will do, who would have thought? Both parts of the exhibit are on display until September 5th.
I also wrote more about each piece on my spring ‘22 highlight reel on Instagram (more specifically where I would wear each of these gorgeous pieces), incase you’re interested.
