Historical fashion show and lecture inspires young designers
Internationally renowned costume historian, Ivan Sayers, will address VCAD’s fashion design students and invited guests on Wednesday, March 17, 2010. Sayers will be presenting “Costumes of the 20th Century” covering the changing trends and styles of fashion from the 1890s through to the 1990s.
Ivan Sayers is well known in Vancouver’s fashion community for his historical fashion shows and lectures. As curator for the Original Costume Museum Society, a group dedicated to preserving historical clothing from around the world, Sayers is able to bring expertise and humour to his presentations.
Not only will Ivan present an in-depth visual commentary covering this unique century of costume, but will also bring actual designer original garments from this period to teach students about changes in design in the past century.
