Imagine my surprise when I picked up the latest issue of NOTIONS from the American Sewing Guild to read that right next to The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, home to one of the most incredible collections of Contemporary Art, the Wilshire May Company Building will play host to a celebration of Diane von Furstenberg's iconic wrap dress, a work of art it it's own right.
