Dear CSA Members and guests, We know you're busy setting your summer schedules, and we want to make sure that you have the most current and up-to-date information on our next program, *Fashion at the Getty: Paris Life & Luxury and Fashion in the Middle Ages*. On August 6, we will gather in Los Angeles for lunch and curator-led tours of these two exhibitions at the Getty. *Paris: Life & Luxury* examines the everyday activities of a Rococo Parisian town house, including dressing. The second exhibition, *Fashion in the Middle Ages*, explores the figures depicted in illuminated pages of medieval manuscripts, which could be recognized at a glance by the clothing they wore. Please watch your email for a forthcoming registration flyer and be sure to reserve *AUGUST 6!* * * *If you missed our last program, **Wardrobe as Autobiography: **The Charmian London Collection with Jo Ann Stabb on May 14, an overview (with photos) is available here: *Historic Costume in California State Parks: Charmian London<http://fashionhistorian.net/blog/2011/05/16/historic-costume-in-california-state-parks/> *.*** A quick note: As many of you may have seen, this Sunday, June 4th, at 3 pm, the Getty presents "Dressing the Part: Historical Costume in Film."
