Here's a preview of my trip to New York!

On my recent trip to New York City, I was excited to be able to attend American Woman: Fashioning a National Identity at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.  The exhibit was drawn from the newly established Brooklyn Museum Costume Collection at the Met.  American Woman examines different perceptions of the modern American woman from the 1890s to the 1940s and how they have affected the way American women are seen today. It interested me to see how the American Woman reinvented her femininity, especially thorough her dress.

More from my visit to come!
