Parodi Costume Collection

The Parodi Costume Collection, and The Parodi Costume Institute Foundation are pleased to announce the extension of In Praise of Ma: Emptiness and the Space Within, through June 12th, 2026.

Since its opening, the exhibition has welcomed an incredible community of visitors—from  a Zen Master Poet, to fashion students and enthusiasts, curators, designers, artists, to the Consul General of Japan and his team, SCAD President Paula Wallace and the entire SCAD FASH Community, our dear friends and professors from MDC MFI and Istituto Marangoni Miami, and many more. The series of visitor Polaroids we present in this post captures moments from these encounters, reflecting the many perspectives that have shaped the life of this show. We are deeply grateful for the continued engagement and support.
 
In Praise of Ma: Emptiness and the Sapce Within explores a radical shift in fashion initiated by Rei Kawakubo, Issey Miyake, and Yohji Yamamoto. Grounded in the aesthetic principles of Ma (間), Hi (秘), So (素), and Ha (破), the exhibition presents garments within immersive installations inspired by East Asian culture and Zen Buddhism—inviting a new way of experiencing fashion through space, materiality, and relationship.

This extension offers additional time to visit before we close for the summer.
