The sympoisum Narratives of Dress: What Can a Garment Say? was a trememdous success! Many thanks to all of our wonderful presenters and to the faculty organizers who brought together a talented and energetic group for an informative exploration of the scholarly potential of costume and textiles. Many participants in the symposium wanted to find a way to stay in touch in keep the vibrant conversations begun there moving forward.

We hope that you will use them to stay in touch with one another and continue building on the good work begun at Smith College on November 1 & 2, 2013.
