VCAD is inviting the public to an evening presentation of fashion and costume history on Wednesday, March 17, 2010. Internationally renowned costume historian, Ivan Sayers, will present "Costumes of the 20th Century," covering the changing trends and styles of fashion from the 1890s through to the 1990s.

Ivan Sayers is curator for the Original Costume Museum Society, a group dedicated to preserving historical clothing from around the world, and is well known in Vancouver for his humorous and enlightening fashion history presentations.
