Video Description

Explore the Levi's archives where the world's best collection of vintage Levi's denim are kept, including the oldest pair of blue jeans in the world, a pair of 501s, with Levi's historian, Tracey Panek. FASHION AS DESIGN is a new course by MoMA that explores a selection of garments from around the world—ranging from Kente cloth to jeans to 3D-printed dresses. Each week will begin with a conversation between the course instructors—Paola Antonelli, Michelle Fisher, and Stephanie Kramer—that introduces the themes, items, and questions that we will explore.
