Made to Measure
February 7, 2013 - Thu February 28, 2013
The Gallery, NBCCD
The Gallery at the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design is pleased to announce the opening of Made to Measure
Thursday February 7th at 4:30pm Showcasing the work of the second year Fashion Design Students, “ Made to Measure” combines classically constructed Corsets and contemporary Tailored Jackets in a single show. Tailoring and Corseting have a long History, using age-old techniques practiced from as far back as the middle Ages. “Made to Measure” explores the interplay between these two ancient and differing approaches to dressing the Human Form. Both Tailoring and Corseting are areas of Garment construction, which require skilled practice in patternmaking and construction. Made to Measure is the culmination of an intensive semester-long look at both of these areas by the Second Year Students in the Fashion Studio. The Show will run from Feb 7- 28 Gallery Hours are Monday to Friday 9:00-4:30 and by appointment.
