I visited ‘Fashion DNA’ with Barbara today. “From 1 August to 22 October 2006 the Rijksmuseum and the Nieuwe Kerk are presenting a remarkable exhibition: ‘Fashion DNA’. This is the first fruit of a two-year cooperative agreement. In ‘Fashion DNA’ the Rijksmuseum’s rich costume collection is the starting point for a unique exhibition on the body, identity and image. The exhibition at the Nieuwe Kerk has been spectacularly designed in a contemporary style by Italo Rota, the Italian architect known for his work for Roberto Cavalli, Dior and others and for his designs for the Winter Olympics in Turin.”
