Denim was once made for labor. Today, it walks the runway. What changed?
Now on view at Catherwood Library, “Weathering the Storm: The Role of Labor in an Era of Climate Change” explores the connections between clothing, labor history, and environmental change through historical photographs, environmental reports, and garments selected by Cornell students.
Featuring archival materials from the Kheel Center (@kheelcenter) at the ILR School (@cornellilr) and garments from the Cornell Fashion + Textile Collection (@cornellhumec), the exhibit traces the evolution of workwear, from red bandanas worn by striking coal miners to clothing that has become everyday fashion and luxury.
On view through August 2027.
