Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion-Exhibition Tour with Andrew Bolton | Met Exhibitions

[@joiedevivre2005]

Thank you so much for sharing. I will likely not be able to see the exhibit in person, but this little glimpse has truly inspired me. Some of the pieces, & the skill involved in their creation, took my breath away!

[@karenoshea8214]

Me too, living in Aotearoa and unlikely to be wealthy enough to travel to see this it was wonderful to experience some of it... Thank you.

[@AJY6396]

petition for the MET to create a yearly cinematic documentary of their annual exhibition including the most notable behind the scenes from the history, creation and staging of the exhibition, the creative ideas and just about everything.

[@ellenshepard2351]

Fabulous! This deserves to be a full length documentary so that everyone can experience the wealth of this collection.

[@HellsKitchenMichelle]

I have videos and photos of everything on my Facebook

[@AzKarma2010]

Yes!!! Please do this!!! @the met

[@luizfloripa222]

Mr Andrew Bolton is certainly the most impressive museum curator on earth! His visionary work is truly magnificent. The amount of research he does for every exhibition is beyond belief. What a talent!

[@breznevolaso4090]

Andrew Bolton's voice is soothing to hear. It's nice that the gentleman himself narrates the presentation.

[@rrsee-zk3zu]

And the words he use to describe the pieces are on point. Such great talent

[@garssympa500]

I won't get a chance to see the exhibit, so thank you very much for this KZbin video. Sounds magnificent.

[@metmuseum]

Thanks for watching!

[@otisberlin]

Thank you Mr. Bolton for treating fashion with the respect and erudition it deserves.

[@natashapbooks]

be ready for a 2-hour wait in line but it's absolutely worth it, will be visiting again soon

[@julia-nc6ox]

Makes me want to hop on a plane!

[@anabellepp]

How long it takes to you see it complete once inside? (the wait line its normal, last year was same, we use that time to see the other galleries) Thanks!

[@natashapbooks]

@@anabellepp about 30-40 minutes

[@anabellepp]

@@natashapbooks Thank you so much! can't wait! ♡⭐

[@Yahyahsouth401]

I see Nicki's dress inspo

[@ahamilton4021]

I feel like this video should have been showed to all of the attendees to help them understand the assignment... appreciate the complex curation and inclusion of all the senses in this exhibit. Thank you for the in depth look.

[@jodirauth8847]

My frail body could never endure the long wait to visit the museum. Having this video on you tube provides a wonderful ability for those like me, to experience this exhibit in some small way.

[@jmk9007]

I could listen to Andrew Bolton all day, what a well spoken gentleman

[@jayment3634]

Videos like this need to be released before the Met Gala.

[@philipsmith4496]

Thank You !!! This is FANTASTIC !!!! Thank You Mr. Bolton and The MET.

[@anitapeura3517]

Yes please, a full length doco would be great for the bulk of us around the world who won't see it in person. So beautiful, so much to learn. I guess there'll be a coffee table book? Also costly, but at least libraries might be encouraged to buy it.

[@krismilko]

I'm absolutely in awe watching this exhibition...and this is not even half of it! Well done, Andrew and the team for putting this together. I wish I could have the honor of seeing this in person. ❤

[@metmuseum]

Thank you!

[@sarahwatts7152]

This video of the exhibit seems more comprehensive than other years, I really appreciate that

[@dawnriddle-knowlton9932]

Thank you very much for posting this. Fabulous and fantastical exhibit/theme!!

[@sumpursun]

Very nice to give these works of art the recognition they deserve and to let the world see them.

[@SamBookmyer]

That was so interesting and informative. Please make this annual ritual.

[@jojo-lz1qs]

thank you Andrew for the great personal tour of the exhibit!

[@kathykirby7883]

I just wish I was able to visit to see this. What absolute beautiful pieces. And what critical work the Costume Museum does. Seeing the materials and garments, breathtaking. And the tour commentary is so interesting. Amazing exhibition. Thank you ❤

[@alpineflauge909]

world class content

[@prakharvishnoi3249]

There are a few places in our world's timeline which i sincerely wish i could be present. This exhibition is one of those times. Garments and fheir curstion is something which is very close to my heart. I still have my grandmother's wedding sari from 1940 amongst other things. I convey my heartfelt regards and thanks to the MET and Mr. Bolton for this insightful and amazing video. Best wishes and congratulations for the successful exhibition. Love from India.

[@gardenlove2782]

What an extraordinary exhibition, I wish I could see it in person.

[@vision-aero]

An immersive virtual reality tour would be amazing for those of us who cannot attend these exhibitions.

[@dancemusicsinging]

im in love with this video. reminds you the work the met does to keep the history of clothing alive and well.

[@alysajp]

Can't wait to witness it in person!

[@rocki_bb]

Thank you so much for this video. I can't really find the words to express it adequately, but this exhibit moved me deeply. I'll probably regret not being able to experience this exhibit in person for the rest of my life. I appreciate the opportunity to see it.

[@katrussell6819]

Wow. Incredible show. Thank you!

[@TheBearAspirin]

Thrilled to know every one of these works or art are forever carefully curated so that's there's ZERO chance it'll end up on a "celebrity" at the Met Gala.

[@jonnyfendi2003]

yeah right. Like the Marilyn Monroe dress Kim wore that was destroyed???

[@TheBearAspirin]

Hoping The Metropolitan Museum of Art has a bit more integrity than Ripley's Believe It or Not LOL

[@henrylivingstone2800]

@@jonnyfendi2003 That’s Ripley’s Believe It or Not. They’re not a museum. It’s more of a road side attraction.

[@jonnyfendi2003]

@@henrylivingstone2800 does it matter...money talks...

[@rocki_bb]

​@@jonnyfendi2003yes. It does.

[@SkyeRangerNick]

Thank you so much for this. Again I watched at 75% speed on a big screen so that the material would be visible longer; I like to zoom in on detail. I appreciate that in the video the camera moves so that we see more than static photos, so to speak. Lucky are those who can walk the galleries. 🤠

[@sarahvarnadoe5105]

I cried the entire video because of the fragility, the artistry and the magical magnificence of the pieces……. And also because I’ll probably not be able to view in person…… thank you for sharing…… can you please make this a online virtual tour ❤❤❤

[@E-Kat]

You must be such an amazing person.❤

[@rosefarquhar1075]

This looks absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much for giving us this glimpse.

[@Okwhythough]

What a treat! It's wonderful to see both history and the varieties in the lenses of creativity of so many designers.

[@WendyKinkaid]

Classy and delicious....absolutely BRILLIANT interpretation of fashion's place in history, and nature's permanent residence in fashion. Thank you for taking time to compose this video. This will reach those unable to attend in person and offer a bit of insight to those planning to attend.

[@cristinaliu9498]

Thank you for the tour! Wish I was in NY so that i could see this wonderful exibition personally…

[@criscris2959]

Gracias por este recorrido privado❤ una joya poder disfrutarlo!

[@AzKarma2010]

I want to fly to NYC experience this exhibition. And come home. I don't ask for much. The fact that there’s a surviving dress from the house of Worth, that’s like my Graceland.

[@giftsofmercyjewelry7527]

Right now I wish I lived in New York! this is so amazingly beautiful! Would love to see it in person unfortunately i live in another country. So appreciative that this video was made. The history of some of the pieces is so incredible.

[@metmuseum]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@kayelyward8714]

Very beautiful and thoughtful display of dresses within the collection. Wonderful stories for each dress.

[@agyos]

I would love to see some of the more modern dresses in the photographs of the models who surely modeled them, when they were first presented. Absolutely beautiful! Thank you!

[@ejohnson3131]

3:22 That would’ve been the perfect dress for this year’s Met Gala. Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion/The Garden of Time.

[@alexistriskey4955]

That’s Alexander McQueen’s favourite butterfly gown that’s my favourite gown and it looks like 1 million butterflies wearing that outfit

[@nicolassandoval1405]

This is amazing, just thinking about the galas in the 1800, thats why fashion is so important

[@buds8423]

I was going to say something critical in the previous video-so glad I saw this second video of actual exhibit! Now I get what they were aiming for. Bravo and Brava!

[@IngeEvenwel]

Absolutely stunning thank you for sharing. Wish I could see it in person

[@KimiPetri]

I wish I could visit the met. What a beautiful tour, and the host kept me captivated. 😊

[@RobJorg]

saving up for a trip to new york, the met is on my list of must visit, i mean top of my list.

[@mallorypineda9293]

So happy I got to see these beauties in person a few days ago

[@craigathonian]

Another, once in a lifetime creation by the genius Andrew Bolton ! What an incredible exhibit, on so many levels. This guy is a one of a kind human that has no equal ! { 🌹but i'm beside myself on how Alexander McQueen's Rose Dress was absent, since it is a monster of creativity🌹 }

[@random22026]

0:10 If that is a Constantin Brancusi, then you've outdone yourselves! 😍😍 Well done, Mr. Bolton: you navigated that perilous script beautifully.

[@alyonashii]

It's so interesting exhibition. I wish I could visit it, but I can't. Thank you for this video!

[@Anil18834]

Marvelous curatorial work.

[@tanausu7]

Stunning what humans can create 😍

[@olene184]

i saw this collection... stunning curation... i'm not sure how much the scent tubes added to the experience but the use of AI to show how the piece moves in a body is excellent

[@MK-hh1vo]

Wow! Surely, invitees to the Met Gala had a preview of this exhibit. I'm surprised at how few of the showcased guests took inspiration from these garments! Kudos to Nicki Minaj, her inspiration was on point!

[@zacanessha]

They do not get a preview. Plus the stylists and designers are the ones that come up with the ideas. The artists just say yes or no.

[@android429]

Absolutely Gorgeous and Mind-blowing!! Right down to the smells lol… Bravo, people, well done ❤️❤️❤️

[@PositivelyPresent1]

This video should have been released before the Met Gala, most celebrities seemed clueless about the theme, sleeping beauties, or garden of time !

[@divainloveforever]

WUAUUU! incredible!!! THANK YOU!!! Cannot stop watching and listening 💯👏🏻💎

What an impressive exhibition and fabulous video tour! Thank you.

Effie Trinket's butterfly dress💛🦋

[@un-pop-ular-opinion8998]

I appreciate the sensory experience you are trying to show. I just wish you exhibited more than the same four or five modern fashion houses

[@KristineMaitland]

I was bemused by the fact that the seamstresses got a mention considering they do much of the work.

[@sesame88]

So beautiful! I wish I could work at The Met so that I can look at this forever even if it means just sweeping the floor.

[@JaneNewAuthor]

Oh for the days when fashion was beautiful!
