FIDM Museum and Galleries; Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising

This is the official page for the FIDM Museum. The FIDM Museum was established in 1978 to provide a research facility of garments, accessories, and visual materials for students, researchers, designers, and the public. The FIDM Museum & Galleries Foundation, Inc. provides students, researchers, designers, and the public with resources to examine the roles of historic fashion, accessories, textiles, jewelry, fragrance, and related ephemera in their relationship to society, history, art, and technology. The collections are sustained by standard museum practices for continual acquisition, preservation, and display. Educational, outreach, and volunteer programs support the scholarly interpretation of the collections.
