Every garment we choose is a deliberate act of design. This course offers a deep dive into the iconic silhouettes that have defined the last century, shifting your perspective from seeing clothes simply as products to understanding them as social and cultural blueprints.
Through exclusive access to The Museum of Modern Art’s network of designers, historians, and photographers, you will analyze how specific shapes and designs have been used to project power, navigate gender, and redefine the self. Whether you are a student of design, a professional in a creative industry, or a lifelong learner curious about fashion, you will develop a sophisticated vocabulary for the evolution of style.
Career Application: This course transforms the study of silhouettes into a professional competency in visual storytelling and cultural trend analysis. By developing a sophisticated vocabulary around how garment shapes project power and navigate identity, you acquire the critical insights necessary to lead high-impact creative direction in marketing, forecast consumer aesthetics, and produce authoritative cultural commentary.
