Exhibition

The Museum of the City of New York presents Mod New York: Fashion Takes a Trip, a fabulously stylish exhibition as colorful as the era it explores.

Mod New York immerses visitors in the sights, sounds, and trends of the 1960s to chronicle the American fashion revolution as designed and worn on the streets of New York City. Covering the years from 1960 through 1973, the exhibition presents style — in the form of dresses and jewelry, hats and handbags, shoes and scarves, and more — as a reflection of the sweeping changes taking place throughout the country during this tumultuous era, including the emergence of the counterculture, the advent of the women’s liberation movement, and the rise of African-American consciousness.

Opening to the public Wednesday, November 22, Mod New York: Fashion Takes a Trip is accompanied by a companion book of the same title published by The Monacelli Press.
