A Queen Within

October 23, 2013

Yesterday concluded my twenty-four hour whirlwind trip to St. Louis. Not only was I able to experience Pi Pizza for the first time (YUM), I was able to discover a wonderful exhibit at the World Chess Hall of Fame. As I wandered around the Central West End one friendly gallery worker recommended I take a look at this particular exhibit. Once I entered I was stunned, this exhibit features garments by designers Alexander McQueen, Gucci, Viktor & Rolf-just to name a few. The experience is divided into multiple sections, each relating to a famous Queen, and of course chess. If you happen to be in St. Louis before April 18 I wouldn't miss A Queen Within: Adorned Archetypes, Fashion and Chess.
