Exhibition Review: Japanese Garments from Two Perspectives Kimono Style: The John C. Weber Collection, New York City: Metropolitan Museum of Art, June 7, 2022-February 20, 2023 Dressed by Nature: Textiles of Japan at the Minneapolis [Minnesota] Institute of Art, June 25-September 11, 2022 Ranging from the 18th to the 20th centuries, it includes a large number of period Western garments that borrow Japanese materials or effects, as well as contemporary garments by major Japanese designers, and various other traditional Japanese garments including theatrical costumes and work clothes in addition to the expected kimono.
