You don’t have to be a fashionista to appreciate NYC’s premier design school’s museum. Yes, you’ll see a lot of clothing, but exhibits here tend to explore cultural history through the lens of fashion, looking at such topics as how denim went from factory wear to club gear; the history of uniforms; or how black designers reshaped stereotypes. A visit should take less than an hour.
