Kent State University Museum exhibits Geoffrey Beene

“American designer Geoffrey Beene (1927–2004) was respected throughout the American fashion industry for the high technical quality of his work and his innovative, modernist designs,” says the Museum on its website.

“Although very fashionable, Mr. Beene's collections were never trendy and always original. He took an artist’s approach to turning two-dimensional fabric into a three-dimensional shape for the body and was considered a designer’s designer. Garments from the Museum’s collection will trace his 40-year career,” the website adds. (PB)
