On Wednesday, February 21, the Art Center hosted a talk by Susan Hiner of the French and Francophone Studies department at Vassar about the Focus Gallery exhibition Accessorizing Paris: Fashion and Art in the Nineteenth Century. The exhibition, co-curated by Hiner and Emily Chancey ’18, combined objects from the Loeb’s collection with objects from Vassar’s Archives and Special Collections as well as from the Drama department’s costume shop and historic costume collection
