In preparing for this year’s soon-to-open Costume Institute exhibit “About Time: Fashion and Duration,” Andrew Bolton continually used the refrain: “Fashion is a mirror of time.” That applies on the broadest cultural scale, of course, but also in small personal histories. For Joseph Altuzarra, a designer of Chinese, French, and American heritage, designing a garment isn’t just about making something in step with right now, but also about expressing stories of life and lineage through fashion.
Separate from celebrating their family heritage, Karen says that the images also highlight the fact that Joseph’s designs work on women of all ages and sizes. “Granny’s not even five feet tall!” she says with a laugh. “That’s another thing I like about this: If I were somebody's grandmother, which I am actually, but if I were looking at those photos I’d say, ‘Hey, I could look beautiful like that too and I don’t have to look like a model.
“One of the things that I’ve really, really enjoyed throughout this whole time is the openness in our industry and the openness to being vulnerable and being honest and real with each other,” Joseph says. “I think for so many years there was this veneer of success that you had to maintain, and failure was something that you had to hide at all costs.
