Hollywood 2010:
The Art of Motion Picture Costume Design
February 9, 2010 – April 17, 2010
They're ready for their close-up! Don't miss the 18th Annual Art of Motion Picture Costume Design exhibition, where you'll get an up close look at over 100 costumes from over two dozen of last year's movies, such as The Young Victoria, Star Trek, Julie & Julia, An Education, Nine, Broken Embraces, and The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. It's a rare opportunity to freeze the action and marvel at the imagination, artistry and intricacy of the costume designs. Also on display are the fashions from The Duchess, the Academy Award® winner for Best Costume Design in 2008.
The free exhibition is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Did You Know?
This year's exhibit also features two films with costume designs by FIDM Grads: Aliens in the Attic, designed by FIDM Grad Mona May, and Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, designed by FIDM Grad Marlene Stewart.
Star Trek Costume Designer Michael Kaplan was not a fan of the original TV series and had not seen any of the previous movies. The Young Victoria Costume Designer Sandy Powell made Victoria's coronation robe completely from scratch, starting with the fabric. The intricate embroidery from the original robe was recreated by printing and hand painting.
