  • How Fashion Invades the Concert Stage
    MPA 0014 HOW FASHION INVADES THE CONCERT STAGE by MAUD POWELL Published in Musical America December 26, 1908 The amateur who dreams of a life of fame in music, has one of two ideas about her future work. If she has talent and personality, she fancies that her playing alone will bring the desired recognition; if artistic and fond of dress, she has visions of beautiful gowns trailing behind her on the concert platform, producing a picture of harmony and elegance. Both pictures have other sides, however. For dress plays almost as important a part in the concert as the talent itself and becomes, as the season progresses, a veritable “Old Man of the Sea.” The professional woman owes it to her public to dress fashionably, for the simple gowns of former years have passed into obscurity and with the increased importance of dress in everyday life, it has spread into all professions, until the carelessly dressed woman or one whose clothes are hopelessly old fashioned has no place in the scheme of things. The business woman receives much help from the fashion periodicals; the mother of a large family is also reached and it is possible for many persons to procure ready-made clothing, thus obviating the necessity of shopping and fitting. Valuable as these two are in the acquiring of an up-to-date wardrobe, they help the musician but little. It is absolutely essential that she have a certain style and individuality in the selection of her gowns, particularly those which must be worn before a critical audience.

In opening to the public on Wednesday, November 29, its exhibition Are Clothes Modern? the Museum of Modern Art, 11 West 53 Street, hopes to stimulate a fundamentally fresh approach to the problems of apparel. Although the exhibition does not offer specific dress reform and is in no sense a fashion show, its original and graphic analysis of the function of clothes indicates directions toward intelligent change now that ideas and conventions of dress are undergoing modification because of the wa». It is the hope of the Museum that the exhibition, by stimulating a re-examination of the subject, may have" a beneficial effect on dress comparable to that al­ ready accomplished by the modern analysis of function in the field of architecture. The exhibition, directed by Bernard Rudofsky, noted architect and designer, has a special installation designed by Mr. Rudofsky in the first floor galleries of the Museum and is arranged in ten general sections which, however, sometimes overlap or flow imperceptibly into one another. These are the Unfashionable Human Body, Excess and Superfluity, Trousers versus Skirts, the Desire to Conform, Posture Causes and Effects, the Abuse of Materials, Wisdom in Period and Folk Dress, American Pioneers, the Revival of the Rational, and the Domestic Background of Clothing. Monroe Wheeler, the Museum's Director of Exhibitions, comments on Are Clothes Modern? as follows: "In presenting this exhibition the Museum of Modern Art has no specific dress reform to expound or advocate.
