How does padding in an 1840s dress expose a case of scoliosis? Why did someone leave a sleeve cuff unfinished on a dress worn to George Washington’s inaugural ball? What do trimmings reveal about a technological revolution in the nineteenth century?

Close examination of a garment can reveal undiscovered stories. On July 16, grab a drink and join the conversation with MdHS Digital Learning Specialist, Ashlee Anderson, and our resident dress detective and Curatorial Assistant, Emily Bach, at our virtual program Between the Seams: Unlocking the Spectrum of Fashion Exhibition, to catch a rarely seen, intimate glimpse of pieces on exhibition.
