This exhibition spotlights classic rock-'n'-roll performers and their pervasive influence on fashion. More than 40 major rock artists who have influenced style from the 1950s to the present—including image icons such as Madonna, Mick Jagger, David Bowie, The Beatles, Elvis Presley, and Bono—are represented by fashions lent by rock artists and drawn from the collections of The Costume Institute and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland.

The exhibition is made possible by Tommy Hilfiger U.S.A., Inc. Additional support has been provided by Condé Nast and The Estée Lauder Companies Inc.
The exhibition was organized by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, Cleveland.
