Remembering Isabel Week: This is a lot of my draped jersey. I do it with patchwork, I call it patchwork draping because it is very simple lines. The draping is... held in place by the seams, so it is actually patchworked draping, which I happen to love...the fact that it’s patchwork. ~ Isabel Toledo (1960-2019) See more

The Office of Academic Initiatives and Strategic Innovation at The Graduate Center, CUNY is pleased to present in collaboration with Italian Cinema - CUNY (IC-CUNY), and The Academy of Italian Cinema David di Donatello Awards an educational project aimed at creating a deeper understanding of the art of Italian cinema from its origins to the present day.

Nearly 20 years ago, The Graduate Center relocated to 365 5th Avenue in 2000, from its previous location on West 42nd Street. The present building was constructed in 1906, as the flagship location for B. Altman & Co., a luxury department store that had seen a massive expansion since its humble beginnings as a Lower Manhattan dry goods merchant.

Happy Birthday Elsa Schiaparelli!! Bending Borders Week: Just as couture clients have always been international, so also have Paris couturiers. Had Elsa Schiap...arelli stayed in Rome (where she was born in 1890), she could never have become an internationally-famous fashion designer. Chanel jealously dismissed her as that Italian artist who makes clothes, but Schiap was Chanel’s most formidable rival in the late 1930s.
