This article examines relationships between the museum fashion exhibit, viewing publics, and historians. It takes as a case study AngloMania: Tradition and Transgression in British Fashion, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, May 3-September 4 2006, as an example of a possibly new type of exhibition merging art-historical research with contemporary styling and viewing practices. © 2008 Berg.
