Well, a lot has certainly been happening these past few weeks. We are living in world that is hard to describe right now. I fear for the Arts communities. I'm also concerned about how this quick pivot to remote teaching will impact Higher Ed in the long term. Lots to think about for sure.
In the meantime, fashion and costume folks are having some fun reminding the rest of the world how some of our fashion choices might see a comeback in an effort to promote social distancing! Einav Rabinovitch-Fox has written a great tutorial on the topic.
Working with my colleague Mary Woll at Arizona Theatre Co. and soliciting some creative input from my students, here are some examples of social distancing fashion choices!
