You're so right about museums need to show more clothing, fabric, etc. It is art not just craft. It's been looked down at for to long and now the skills are vanishing. If people started to see things shown in museums they'd cherish them more and be more willing to pay to

Growing up with the women in my family it was all about handwork. Sewing, quilting, tatting, knitting, crochet, weaving, macrame, embroidery, beading …. I’ve learned it all from them. I’m 63 and still do all handwork above. When I’m sewing a garment I will often add embroidery or other handwork details for that bespoke and one of a kind look. Quilts were hand pieced and stitched (grandma would pass her critical eye over the number of stitches per inch and either nod or give me the ‘do better’ look. 😂 I thrifted a cotton shirt recently with printed white floral and decided to embroider all the white florals and add some beads and sequins to the center because I wanted it special. I wish time and effort into doing handwork was continued on, but many younger women are just not interested anymore to learn. 😔

I thought how much I was enjoying you being the teacher you are, filled with such love and passion for not only the art that is clothing, accessories, jewelry, etc., but also your audience and students. And wishing you would be your passionate-teacher-self more often… and here you are! Thank you! 👏🏻🎁💖

@@thewaywewore7371 Dear Doris~ I love that you are changing your business life to accommodate your personal life! I have always believed the more true we are to ourselves, the more we bring the best of ourselves to any relationship or endeavor. Wise woman, indeed. Here’s hoping Mike continues to feel the love from this side of your videos…. 🎥🎬💖 Maybe museums need a bit of Doris Raymond guidance to better understand the art of fashion? I have been to a couple of exhibits of fashion (twice to each) at Boston’s Museum of Fine Art. What got me was the crazy cross-section of people - all over the place - and the conversation - so thrilled that the MFA did a fashion exhibit. Oh… and the way people dressed up for it, quite atypical. 😉

@capture_to_collage 3 месяца назад

I think part of the reason textiles & embroidery have not been viewed as Art in the past is because it was predominantly made by women & often those at the lower end of the economic scale. As we have seen with the success of the Touring Exhibitions such as Dior & McQueen there is an audience who appreciate & will pay money to see Fashion as Art, but it would be great to see Museums showcase fashion thru the ages as permanent exhibitions featuring items such as Doris just showed & not necessarily only focus on famous Designers.

@thewaywewore7371 3 месяца назад

I absolutely agree with you. Perhaps when the obvious becomes apparent- the hand worked treasures will get the attention they deserve in all major institutions and not be on the back burner. Thanks for reaching out! Doris
