Poiret: King Of Fashion-- Opening Today

Designer Paul Poiret (1879-1944) was known for having freed women from wearing corsets and introducing pantaloons. The title King of Fashion was one that he gave himself. Now the self-proclaimed king is the subject of a new exhibit at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, here in New York City. Here's a preview:
