My Aunt Nona's little Geoffrey Beene gold beaded dress is now on display at the Museum of the City of New York. The exhibition is Mod New York, Fashion Takes a Trip.....and you can bop and bounce through the exhibit listening to the sound track of the time. The exhibit features designers Geoffrey Beene, Ruby Bailey, Pauline Trigére, and more.

I got to the Met just in time to see the Rei Kawakubo Comme De Garçons. It closes September 4th. Just a few more days and then something else original and inspiring will show up.

I don't take Museum Days often enough (which has to change), but recently I visited 2 of New York's finest, Museum of Arts and Design and The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
These Visits are always so inspiring which resulted in 2 videos so I can have a reference......and exercise my inner Spike Lee.
