“Fashionality” is a newly coined term that refers to the visual culture and semiotics of dress and adornment. Combining the words “fashion,” “personality,” and “nationality,” it suggests the interplay between clothing, identity and culture. Reflecting wide geographic and cultural diversity, this exhibition focuses upon the ways in which the concerns, identities and aesthetics of those living in Canada are expressed, deconstructed and reconfigured through the idiom of dress.

This blog records exhibition-related information, as well as work and events related to artists appearing in the show.

Time to Expose Yourself (to art and fashion).

This weekend it is: Fashion as Art -- Exposed!  A fantastic fundraiser at the McMichael featuring fine art fashionistas of the finest feathers . . .

Jeanne Beker hosting, cocktails and bling, the Group of Seven fashion designers extraordinaire, and glamour galore. Yes, you have died and gone to heaven.  Clearly -- you need to be there.  Here are the deets -- and be sure to note the shuttle bus service for the evening. Oooh la la!!
