Fabulous

Had a great day out with friends this past Saturday. We went to the Fashion Institute of Design Museum in downtown Los Angeles. They feature really wonderful changing exhibits on all aspects of fashion and costume design. The current show is called "Fabulous" and features museum gifts and purchases of Western fashions dating from 1800 to the present. If you are interested in fashion, history and beauty this collection will be well worth your while. The exhibit is extended through Dec. 23, 2011.
It's great fun. I highly recommend.
