I received an email encouraging me to notify all who might be interested that the Metropolitan Museum of Art is having a blog party about their upcoming exhibit Blog mode: Addressing Fashion at _http://blog.metmuseum.org/blogmode/_ (http://blog.metmuseum.org/blogmode/) The show includes forty costumes and accessories dating from the 18th century to the present. Each of the costumes is in a thumbnail. Of course, I was trying to blow up some of the later listed costumes, looking for our favorite textile, lace, but I could only blow up the first three items. I think that they are writing an introductory blog on one item each day, thus initiating the blog on that item, since there are now, only three items that seem to be fully functional in terms of enlarging them in size and blogging on them. I may be wrong about this since my computer skills are limited. In any case, the purpose of the blog party is to stimulate a dialogue about fashion. Apparently there will even be terminals in the museum where you can blog about your reactions to the costumes. I can tell by squinting at the thumbnails that a couple of the dresses are 18th century and may well have lace on them worthy of comment when they are finally rolled out for blogging. Devon
