How funny -- I just got in the door! Went to see it today, since it was the last day. It was terrific through and through.

I saw it in May - FABULOUS. For those of you in the NY area, there is a sister show at the Brooklyn Museum. Not sure how long it will be before it closes but it looked marvelous. I bought the book but did not get to see it.

Both exhibits are closed now, but there are multiple posts with photos on my blog.

I have to be honest. I really didn't care for the Met exhibit. You can read about my reasons on the blog post. The Brooklyn exhibit was far superior, and they allowed photography.

There is also a folder of photos on the Couture Allure Facebook page.
