How do I choose just one favorite? I love everything about the show - the purses on the mannequins heads is a whimsical touch. Wish I could be there with you and thank goodness they let you take photos. Around here the museums are so weird.

Dress Code: High Fashion hat gesagt…

@Heather: I think the museum`s photography policies depend on the content of the exhibition. This exhibition goes only 2 weeks and features relatively new pieces of high quality, so (flash-)light won`t harm them during the short time.
