Description
Phoenix Art Museum presents the first ever Museum retrospective to highlight the extraordinary ingenuity of American designer Giorgio di Sant Angelo. The winner of two Coty Awards and two Council of Fashion Designers of America honors, Sant Angelos notable three-decade career generated a wide array of collections, including Gypsy (1969) and Natives of the Americas (1970), all of which were innovative for their pioneering use of stretch fabrics and powerful expression of the era. Featuring more than 40 ensembles and accessories, the exhibition spans the late 1960s through the early 1990s and provides a stunning overview of Sant Angelos influence and legacy.
Sant Angelo was an artist with the exceptional ability to see beyond the established fashion norms, creating designs that were revolutionary in every sense from the fabric, to the cut, to his interpretation of cultural influences. His dynamic creativity defined him as a designer and his ingenious use of stretch fabrics went beyond high fashion to influence the look of mainstream clothing, commented exhibition curator, Dennita Sewell. This exhibition brings to new light the magnitude of Sant Angelos influence and his continued impact on fashion designers and stylists working today.
Giorgio di Sant Angelo is drawn from Phoenix Art Museums extensive fashion design archive, the Texas Fashion Collection, UCLA archives and private collections. In addition, the exhibition will feature never-released, original footage of runway shows and interviews, photographs and sketch books.
