Nasher Film Series: Fresh Dressed
Sunday, June 25, 3 PM

Fresh Dressed (2015, director Sacha Jenkins, 1 hour and 30 minutes, not rated)

This is a fascinating chronicle of hip-hop, urban fashion and the hustle that brought oversized pants and graffiti-drenched jackets from Orchard Street to high fashion catwalks and middle America’s shopping malls. Director Sacha Jenkins’s musical history draws from a rich mix of archival materials and in-depth interviews with rappers, designers and other industry insiders. Complement to Nina Chanel Abney: Royal Flush. Free with admission.

Enjoy lunch at the Nasher Museum Café before the film. For reservations, please call 919-684-6032 or book through Open Table.
