Fashion Remix, a Walters Art Museum initiative during Baltimore Fashion Week, celebrates Baltimore’s inventive, bold, and evolving fashion sensibility. Fashion Remix is a fashion competition that invites Baltimore-based designers to create original works inspired by objects in the museum’s collection and interpret their history, material, and narrative to create designs of their own. This year, designers will follow in the footsteps of self-taught jewelry maker Douriean Fletcher by taking inspiration from work in the Walters’ ancient Egyptian and Latin American art collections, bridging art and design across time.

Come dressed in your best art-inspired wear for a mixer with the designers and members of Baltimore’s fashion community. Guests will have the opportunity to view the Fashion Remix looks, connect with local creatives, and visit Douriean Fletcher: Jewelry of the Afrofuture before it closes.

Douriean Fletcher: Jewelry of the Afrofuture is dedicated to jewelry artist Douriean Fletcher, whose work has shaped the cinematic worlds of Marvel Studios’ Black Panther films and Coming 2 America. The exhibition explores the self-taught metalsmith’s jewelry as a powerful narrative tool in art, Black identity, and visual storytelling and spotlights works from the Walters collection that inspired the artist. The exhibition is on view from April 18 to August 9 in our Temporary Exhibition Gallery on Level 1.

This exhibition is made possible, in part, by The Betty Cooke and William O. Steinmetz Exhibitions Fund, Guy Flynn and Nupur Parekh Flynn, Judy and Scott Phares, Anthony Evans and Kevin Sowers, Alex Cooper Auctioneers, Jabari Jefferson, Shaquayah McKenzie, Susan Weingast Brown and Thomas Brown, Jesse Salazar and Tom Williams, Mark Anthony Thomas, Travieso & Ziegler, LLC, and other supporters of the Walters Art Museum.
