The Art and Activism of Dress with MIchael Sylvan Robinson (Dressed Classic)
06/03/2026 | 42 mins.
In celebration of the Met Gala 2022 and American design, we speak to Michael Sylvan Robinson, the textile artist and queer activist behind Jordan Roth's show-stopping collaged "coat of many colors" worn to last year's festivities. Robinson joins us to discuss his thought-provoking use of textiles, clothing and the (dis)embodied form to explore entangled themes of identity, sexuality, violence, and healing.
