Museum docents lead an interactive, close-looking conversation focused on one work of art, encouraging visitors to consider its history, meaning, and connections to the broader collection.
This installment examines Alexander McQueen's meticulously pieced Black and White Checked Suit from his Fall 2003 collection. Master Docent and former Arizona Costume Institute president Judy Steers will discuss the work's place in the museum's Emphatics archive, McQueen's theatrical approach to runway presentation, and the Savile Row tailoring behind the design.
