Greta Garbo, Jean Harlow and Vivien Leigh -- these movie stars of the 1930s were all about glamour and sophistication. And so were the fashions of that era. Come and admire the gorgeous fabrics and elegant cut of some of the museum's collection of 1930's evening dresses.

Test your knowledge of the talkies in a short quiz, see how celebrity dolls of the 30's like Shirley Temple and Sonia Henie mirror the fashions of the era, and laugh yourself silly as you dress up and admire yourself in the funhouse mirror! Junior fashionistas can express themselves at the museum's Tweens Fashion Workshop on Wednesday, February 23, 2011.
