The Total Look: The Creative Collaboration between Rudi Gernreich, Peggy Moffitt, and William Claxton

This exhibition will celebrate the remarkable collaboration between the great fashion designer Rudi Gernreich, his model and muse Peggy Moffitt, and Moffitt's late husband, the photographer William Claxton, who created the distinctive images of Moffitt activating Gernreich's designs. The exhibition will feature selected looks from Moffitt's definitive collection, with films and photographs by Claxton of Moffitt modeling the clothes.

The Total Look: The Creative Collaboration between Rudi Gernreich, Peggy Moffitt, and William Claxton is organized by Cameron Silver, fashion historian and founder, Decades, with Ethel Seno and Jhordan Dahl. Christopher Claxton, the son of Moffitt and Claxton and the Director of the Claxton Archive helped to coordinate the presentation of the photographs and films.
