Hi Guys! I just wanted to share with you an exhibition I attended at the Mint Museum yesterday. This is an incredible fashion exhibition, literally breath taking in person. Sorry for the poor quality photographs, I did not have my DSLR with me due to this being a total spur of the moment adventure. The photos were snapped with my iPhone 5s and I hope you guys do not mind. There are styles from the 1700's to Haute Couture including Dior, Balmain, and YSL, which of course now is Saint Laurent. Both exhibits are superb. Every piece had an informational plaque that informs you about the pieces and their designers. Here are just a few of my favorites from the collections.
