Informing Captive Audiences Since 2010! | Harvard Law School Library | Volume 7 Issue 3: April 2016

What (Not) to Wear: Fashion and the Law

From arsenic green to Louboutin red, from

laws requiring you dress according to your
social class to judges enhancing their robes
to underscore their expertise, there are
more intersections between fashion and
law than might first seem apparent. Our
new exhibit explores many of the ways the
two fields have been entwined over the millenia. Visit the
Caspersen Room, open daily 9am-5pm, now until August 12.

Muppet Madness!

If feeling like a
kid again is something that would
help you de-stress
as the academic year draws
to a close, the Brattle Theatres Muppet Madness series
might do the trick--there are
even singalong showings!
