Special Event: Carole Tanenbaum: Celebrity Watch ... 100 Years of Style Makers
On Saturday December 3, 2011 at 1:00 pm in Dryden Theatre
Over the decades, trends in costume jewelry have been influenced by two things: history and celebrity. During economic and political crises, adornment of all kinds was generally more subdued. When these crises ended and the mood was celebratory, people felt free once more to indulge. Throughout this lecture we will explore who, when, and how various high profile people influenced the styles of costume jewelry within a 100-year period. Included with Museum admission.
