Thursday, March 4 | 11 am and 6 pm | Free; tickets required | The Farrell Auditorium

Choose the time that works best for you. The same lecture will be presented at 11 am and 6 pm, so you only need to attend one session.

Be the first to explore high fashion in the exhibition Paris Haute Couture with art historian curator Waleria Dorogova.

In this discussion, Dorogova explores the celebrated ateliers of Chanel, Paul Poiret, Lanvin, Dior, Christian Lacroix, and more, revealing the artistry and innovation behind their extraordinary creations. Bringing together more than 70 haute couture dresses and ensembles, along with drawings and photographs from the Palais Galliera, French Fashion Museum, the exhibition offers a rare opportunity to experience many works never before shown in the United States.

This lecture is part of a daylong Member preview celebration of Paris Haute Couture. The exhibition will be open to Members only from 10 am to 9 pm on Thursday, March 4.
