DVF: Journey of a Dress

 
DVF: Journey of a Dress is currently on exhibit at LACMA. We spent the afternoon admiring all the goodness that is DVF and her iconic dress. Welcomed by docents dressed in DVF, the entrance hallway holds photos of the designer and iconic women in her dress through the years. There are portraits of Diane, my favorite ones were the Warhols, showing what a true beauty she is. And the best/most stunning was the main room that housed her dresses.

Dozens of mannequins were dressed in her iconic dress. Arranged by print, with lighting so focused on the dresses, it was a site.

One of my favorite details were DVF prints that went from wall paper to floor covers. So vibrant in color and pattern, they made for great photo opportunities!




 



The exhibit runs through April. We can't wait to return for another visit!

It really is all about the prints for me rather than just the design of the dress. Your family seemed like it was having a lot of fun in front of the print wall!

I love wrap dresses, but one which suits my figure is so hard to find. =(

Hannah steals the whole show, by the way. But you already knew that! ;-)
