The “Roaring Twenties,” also known as the “Jazz Age,” ushered in an adventurous new world of fashion, the focus of a new exhibition at SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion and Film. “Entering Modernity: 1920s Fashion from the Parodi Collection” invites us to tour the fashion of a changing world of emboldened and evolving femininity, the sumptuous embrace of expressive new art styles, and cultures interconnected by global trade.
SCAD FASH director of fashion exhibits Rafael Gomes and Parodi Costume Collection curator Gonzalo Parodi joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes to share some insight into the exhibition.
