The new Exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum in New York is extraordinary, integrating historical treasures and art with fashion. China has been a force in the world of fashion as far back as the early years of the 20th century. The exhibit seamlessly blends objet d’ arts from the Bronze Age to Balenciaga dresses from the 1920s. Anna Winatour played a principal role in curating this exhibition and it is absolutely worth seeing. From a Tea House to a room of Chinese influenced designer perfume bottles, the show demonstrates the outsanding contribution of China to the world of fashion.
