The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York opened an exhibit yesterday entitled “Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy.” The exhibit, supported by fashion giant, Giorgio Armani, and the publishing company, Conde Nast, focuses on the relationship between superhero fashion and real world fashion, noting the evolution of prototypical superhero costumes like that of Superman to, for instance, the biker look of Ghost Rider. The exhibit also features a number of fashion pieces modeled after classic superhero attire. If you’re going to be in the area anytime between now and September 1, I highly suggest you check it out.
