The Items; Is Fashion Modern at the MoMA is an ambitious and far ranging show. It offers a unique perspective on the history and evolution of fashion, exploring everything from the simple white t, to a famous couture Issey Miyake gown. This show is absolutely worth a visit - on display at the MoMA through January 2018.
