Exhibition Tour—Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination | The Met Fifth Avenue

This video is part of Exhibition Tours, a series exploring select Met exhibitions.

Join curator Andrew Bolton at The Met Fifth Avenue for a tour of The Costume Institute's spring 2018 exhibition, Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.

The Costume Institute's spring 2018 exhibition—at The Met Fifth Avenue and The Met Cloisters—features a dialogue between fashion and medieval art from The Met collection to examine fashion's ongoing engagement with the devotional practices and traditions of Catholicism.

The Byzantine galleries at The Met Fifth Avenue focus on designers who were inspired by the interiors of Byzantine churches, while the Medieval and Lehman galleries feature designs inspired by the holy ordering of the Catholic Church.
