Get an insider’s glimpse into the new exhibit “‘An Agreeable Tyrant’: Fashion After the American Revolution” from Curator of Costume and Textiles Alden O’Brien. The exhibit displays men’s and women’s clothing from 1780 to 1825 in over a dozen period rooms throughout the building. Join us for an in-depth look at the historical themes it explores, up-close details of some of the garments, and a look behind the scenes at how we accessorize and dress the manikins.
