I nearly forgot! Amongst all the reference questions and magazine research today, I nearly forgot that this evening is the Met Gala<\/a>! This year the party is in honor of Rei Kawakubo<\/a>, one of our Word-Worthy Women. That guarantees that the red carpet for this event will display some unusual and challenging treasures, as well as the usual collection of brilliant near-misses. In order that we be able to discuss this together tomorrow, I bring back our red carpet bingo card. Stream it <\/a>tonight, let’s snark about it tomorrow! (You can see it here<\/a>, too. And here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

(You can also read the Costume Institute’s conservator, Sarah Scaturro’s interview about the show here<\/a>. She’s a grad of the FIT Museum Studies program in the Graduate Division.)<\/p>\n
