Dress to impress

marlene_minerva_500RBMarlène Dietrich was one of the first women who dared to wear men’s clothing. And wearing a formal dinner jacket she really knew how to ‘dress to impress’. The dinner jacket is part of an exhibition called ‘The ideal man’. It’s all about the history of men’s fashion from the seventeenth century up to the present day. The exhibition with over 150 outfits and accessories can be seen until the end of October at the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague.
