Join us at the Stephens Costume Museum to celebrate the cirucus of fashion.There is the excitement and masquerade of dressing to please others and ourselves, and the bravery of the ringleaders of fashion, those who take risks, break rules and act as renegades. The exhibit Greatest Show on Earth: Fashion Circus features a big-top display of fashion, with main attractions including The Grandstand, where historical exoticism meets couture; The Calliope and Side Show groupings that are not for the faint of heart, but rather take one to the zany side of life; Caged Animals, which shows the ferocity of fashion through animal prints and furs; and Le Cirque, a collection of designer garments to counter balance the absurdity of the side show.
Open from noon-3 p.m. Saturday-Sunday and 5:30-8:30 p.m. Thursdays. Free and Open to the Public. Call (573) 876-7220 for ticket information. The Stephens Costume Museum is located at 6 N. College Ave, Lela Raney Wood Hall.
