You’ve probably watched a Lauren Bacall film sometime in your life. She passed last August. (obituary)
This exhibit’s over now but I’ll post what my sister and I saw at the Fashion Instititute of Technology while I visited on Spring Break.
We had a lot of fun looking at the fashions and reading the accompanying magazine pieces.
The first piece we saw is the coat

My sister and I went to the Brooklyn Museum First Night in December. (sponsored by TARGET, Stef)
When we were making our purchases in the gift shop, I saw the stacks of books Nails: The Story of the Modern Manicure and author Suzanne Shapiro graciously signing copies for people in line.

Love how her top matches the book cover
Great Lakes Girls by Teri Greeves, Native American Artist -on the 5th floor,not the Killer Heels exhibit
“Teri Greeves created this piece by hand-sewing beads, Swarovski crystals, silver conchos, and spiny-oyster shell cabochons on a pair of high-heeled tennis shoes designed by Steve Madden. The inner panels are inspired by Great Lakes tribes’ floral designs”

Last year’s homecoming heels post is here
I couldn’t walk in these fancy shoes, I know that.
Probably couldn’t get them on my feet, like Cinderella’s stepsisters couldn’t get that glass slipper on their foot either.

And, they don’t stay on
very long at all.
