How Do Clothes Tell a Story? The Semiotics of Dress
2026 SMTD Teaching Excellence Award Lecture by Professor Christianne Myers
How do costume designers harness the power of the hidden and not-so-hidden signs and symbols in attire to help tell stories on stage? What role can our embodied knowledge play in this process? That is "collective memory," and what is its impact on the audience?
Join Professor Christianne Myers for an examination and discussion of these foundational steps in the costume design process.
Professor Myers' lecture will also be streamed on Zoom. To join, visit https://myumi.ch/QMJPZ
