New York - The Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) is honoring a costume designer this spring. Highlighting Adrian Greenberg, the exhibition entitled “Adrian: Hollywood and Beyond” will open March 7.

Adrian, known most commonly by just his first name, gained a reputable standing as a costume designer for his gowns and vivacious designs made in the past for Joan Crawford, Greta Garbo, Jean Harlow, and Norma Scherer. His costume designs were “the most copied clothes in the world,” according to the Fashion Museum at FIT’s website. The exhibition will include his ready-to-wear designs alongside his portfolio. The program will highlight Adrian’s materials and textiles used as well as his production process. The installation will run for an entire month up until April 1.

The Museum at FIT is known as a specialized fashion museum that features various artists and designers. The museum has approximately 100,000 visitors per year. The museum’s mission is to educate and advance the knowledge of fashion through these programs, exhibitions, and publications. Featuring Adrian will further expand his legacy as a costume designer alongside his iconic work.
