![]() Isabel Toledo: Fashion from the Inside OutThe artistry of Isabel Toledo will be saluted in Isabel Toledo: Fashion from the Inside Out, presented by The Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology from June 17 to September 26, 2009.This mid-career retrospective will display approximately 70 iconic looks from the mid- 1980s to the present, including pieces from Toledo's highly praised 2007-2008 collections as creative director of Anne Klein. The Cuban-born fashion designer Isabel Toledo is often described as "a designer's designer." Although she is little known to the general public, her work is greatly admired by members of the fashion community. As the late fashion journalist Amy Spindler once wrote, "Only great designers can dispense with themes and theatrics and let the work speak instead. Ms. Toledo does just that, letting fashion itself be the theme." Isabel's focus on technique, her willingness to experiment, and her strong personal vision make her work stand out. But other aspects of her career - her early rise to fame and subsequent years of struggle, her brush with organized crime, and her rollercoaster ride at a big fashion company - will be familiar to many in the modern fashion system. event (ended) current design events more info www.fit...
