Happy 60th Baz Luhrmann 🎈
“All my life is working against the cliché of beauty”, announces Miuccia Prada across the table to Elsa Schiaparelli. But this is no ordinary dialogue but rather an “imaginary conversation” between one living designer and one long dead dreamt up by curator,.

We always wanted to do it as a gesture of friendship and support for the Met, because Catherine and I have utilised the Costume Institute archives on all of our shows for costume research, and really it is a fantastic resource. But finding the time was difficult.
In one of the conversations, Miuccia and Schiap disagree about whether fashion is art- what’s your own personal take on this?
