On Friday, March 6, The Museum at FIT holds its 23rd academic symposium, Ballerina: Fashion’s Modern Muse. The one-day event explores the ways in which 20th-century ballerinas and their glamorous, romantic costumes profoundly inspired modern fashion. Speakers include Lynn Garafola, professor emeritus of Columbia University; Laura Jacobs, dance and fashion critic; and Jane Pritchard, curator of dance at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
