An extra Costume Committee meeting has been arranged for this fall hosted by Dr. Nina Gockerell and Dr. Johannes Pietsch at the Bavarian National Museum – a kind of working meeting, with many kinds of presentations of ideas and experience about exhibiting costume. If the Committee receives a grant from ICOM, there will be a follow-up meeting next year to put together an idea catalog on CD for distribution to museums without trained costume staff.
