Exposing Meaning in Fashion Through Presentation was a groundbreaking exhibition featuring fashion designers who were powerfully re-imagining fashion and its presentation. Designers Hussein Chalayan, Susan Cianciolo, Martin Margiela, Viktor & Rolf, and Vivienne Westwood created site-specific installations for the Brooklyn Bridge Anchorage. Patrick Li curated a limited edition publication examining fashion presentation in print and Victoria Bartlett created an installation focusing on the evolving role of film and video in fashion presentation, conceived with Andrea Rosen.
