Summary:

Fashioned by Sargent explores the complicated relationship of painting and dress through reproductions of portraits and other works by Sargent, alongside costumes of the period - including garments actually worn by his sitters. Essays illuminate topics such as portraits and performance, gender expression, the New Woman, and the pull of history and the excitement of new ideas.
