Vintage Dress Exhibition | La Vida Es Bella: Mexican Modernist Textiles From the Marjorie Skouras Collection

Friday, April 21 – Wednesday, April 26 | Currey & Company, IHFC M110 on Main Street Meet
With more than 200 textiles in the collection acquired by Marjorie Skouras, this exhibition will feature 24 vintage Mexican dresses from the 1970s. Ms. Skouras interest in these dresses began when she bought a ruined 19th century colonial mansion in Merida in 2015. The collection began simply as a passion for the pieces but soon expanded to researching the dress makers/designers and their inspiration from Mexican art and culture of the 1960s and 1970s reflecting the surrealist, modern and pop art movement of that era.
