I love visiting this museum every so often. The exhibits rotate, and it’s free to enter! There’s also a public bathroom in the lobby which is good to know when you’re stranded in the city :) definitely check it out if you have some free time. It’s a small museum so you don’t need to spend hours here.

Incredible exhibits. If you're interested in fashion, styling or history in any way check it out. I make it a point to see every exhibit they offer. Usually it's a smaller one upstairs with tons of facts and history, and a larger one in the basement. Very well curated and informative. Love this place!

The United States' premier museum of clothing and fashion. Well thought out exhibitions across two accessible galleries. Easy to get to hours and it's free. And it draws upon the museum's excellent collection.

Fashion Education For those in clothing and accessories fashion, this is an absolute must to visit. Force of Nature shows how nature influences fashion in fabric printing of patterns and styling of clothes, hats and shoes. Melissa Marra's curated analysis of associating Darwin's theory of natural selection and sexual attraction in animals by colouring and fashion designers conscious copying of animals skin colours, patterns, textures and feathers and environment also to attract attention is insightful for viewers and shoppers as well. Clothing for females is made for attracting attention whereas for males less so, to match the animal kingdom. Females attract and males are attracted. Women probably shop more than men,whether consciously or unconsciously with this in mind. Note: this is free education in fashion from a university that teaches it.

Free exhibits about fashion. Worth checking out. FIT itself is in a hulking Brutalist concrete monster of a building, looks like it is always leaking something.
