Paris Vs. New York

ACI Nouveau is proud to announce our annual fundraising blowout event!

This year we will be screening Versailles '73, the fabulous film that swept fashion week and the Cannes Film Festival.

Her is some of the fabulous buzz the film has been getting!
Style.com had this to say!
The Root.com also had some great things to say about the film!

In 1973, five American designers took Paris by storm! American modern, ready-to-wear style was pitted against classic French haute couture in the stunning backdrop of the Palace Versailles.

Join ACI Nouveau as we party like it's 1973 for a special advanced screening of the film in a Paris vs. New York themed reception at Phoenix Art Museum on September 29th.

The reception begins at 6:00pm September 29th.
The film screening at 7:00pm followed by a discussion with the director, Deborah Riley Draper

Be sure to dress in your most fabulous Parisian or New York inspired outfit!

Hors d'Oeuvres and Cash-only bar.

Seating is limited so buy your tickets now!


Some Modern Spirits

Greetings Fashionistas!

Sorry for the recent hiatus, we've been busily planning some fabulous upcoming events for the Museum and Nouveau!

First up is the opening reception for Modern Spirit, the Fashion Design Department's latest exhibition TOMORROW NIGHT!

The show features stunning designs from the 1920s and evokes the spirit of a truly modern age. 20s inspired fashion has been all over the runways for the last few seasons which makes this exhibition right on trend!

Reception starts at 6:00 pm with an introduction in Whiteman Hall at 7:00. If you haven't RSPV'd yet contact ACI at (602) 307-2011 or at rsvp@arizonacostumeinstitute.com
