"Francisco Medavogs collection started off as a small sampling of some European couture designs to help him study FASHION design. By looking at the French seams and other intricacies, he learned about couture construction through the true masters of design. This hobby quickly became a collection of more than 25,000 fashion items, primarily 20th century European designs, with a number of them extending back to the 1920s and 30s.

"At first, I didn't quite understand why so many people were interested in seeing these clothes," says Francisco. "For me, the clothes were simply great examples of what I was able to study while at the Fashion Institute. Now, I feel that my collection is the beginning of a wonderful museum collection."

"I'd love to open the first American Fashion Museum, devoted solely to fashion and couture, similar to Zandra Rhodes' museum in London."

  • i'm so jealous!

  • You will do just fine without it Morgan! :O)

  • This scarf is beautiful!! I love the pink/green colours very much. I'd wear it with my green cameo Fendi sunglasses and a green outfit. Did you know green is Tina Turner's favourite colour?

  • I didn't know! I love green especially Jade green... Search Jadeite by Fireking a 1930 depression glass, I collect.

  • A classic!
