About This Course

Every garment we choose is a deliberate act of design. This course offers a deep dive into the iconic silhouettes that have defined the last century, shifting your perspective from seeing clothes simply as products to understanding them as social and cultural blueprints. Through exclusive access to The Museum of Modern Art’s network of designers, historians, and photographers, you will analyze how specific shapes and designs have been used to project power, navigate gender, and redefine the self. Whether you are a student of design, a professional in a creative industry, or a lifelong learner curious about fashion, you will develop a sophisticated vocabulary for the evolution of style.
