Fashioning San Francisco

 


At the deYoung Museum in San Francisco they have an exhibit going on called "Fashioning San Francisco", it is a look of women's high fashion in the city over the years. (I included the year the dress was from and the designer):

1924 Jeanne Lanum

1921 Lady Duff Gordon

1926- Louise Boulanger


1955- Yves Saint Laurent

1947- Christian Dior

2003- Oscar De La Renta

1991 Gianfranco Ferre


2013- Vivienne Westwood

2010- Alexander McQueen

1987- Kaisik Wong

1961- Chanel

1990-John Galliano

1983- Roberto Capucci

1977- Yves Saint Laurent


I am not one who knows anything about high fashion but I enjoyed this exhibit and learning about all the different designers and avant-garde fashion.

  9. Some beautiful clothes there, although if I were a woman I'd hate to wear some of them - they may look good but must be so uncomfortable to lug around! Thanks for taking part in the "My Sunday Best" meme.

  10. It does seem like fun to view how ladies dressed through the years. A bit out of my league, but you photographed it well.
