Im so glad I visited the museum. It was my first time in Atlanta and first time at the museum. I really enjoyed the opportunity to check up close every little detail of beading, embroidery and intricate designs. The museum team is very friendly and knowledgeable, they provide lots of information on the exhibition pieces. The view of Atlanta was a nice surprise for me!

The muesum had a nice assortment of clothing. They had a lounge area that showcased jewelry made by students and a varying selection of memorabilia for purchase. They also have a huge TV with a short video on it that displayed a assortment of SCADs different talent from video to fashion and beyond. I would have like to seen a little more diversity in the video. The museum is small but filled with wonderful pieces and student helpers that are eager to help. Will be back to view different collections.

Outstanding Museum! An excellent place to see beautiful art ( collections of high end and unique fashion, sometimes photography exhibits) plus it is staffed with very knowledgeable staff and students that are accessible and answer questions. A truly unique museum experience in a beautiful building. Also probably the most inexpensive museum in Atlanta.

I went on the to SCAD FASH and took advantage of the free admission thanks to the Second Sunday museum program. I’m glad I went then because I would have been disappointed if I had paid to see one tiny exhibit. The Derrick Adams exhibit was neat, but I really wanted to see the Alaïa pieces and was disappointed that the grand opening for that was the next day. Visitors could pop their head into the Alaïa gallery, but it was still under construction.I will say that finding the parking garage was a headache, but once I was in, I was able to easily locate the entrance to the museum. The staff that was there that day were very friendly and helpful. I did love the views of Downtown Atlanta and the front of SCAD FASH is really unique. I would love to go again when the main exhibit is fully accessible to the public.FYI: they do not offer programs or details next to the individual pieces on exhibit. You must refer to their online guide or use one of the iPads they have available to visitors. I heard a few people grumbling about not knowing what they were looking at. Just ask one of the docents for help.

“Form & Function Shoe Art” by Chris Francis & “Fashioning Art From Paper” by Isabelle de Borchgrave are the current exhibits on display at SCAD. Both are excellent and worthy of a visit. Admission is $10. Parking is free. The garage is located behind the main building. Drive up to the 4th level of the garage to access the Museum. Be sure to visit the green space with spectacular city views of Atlanta. You can walk up the stairs from the green space straight into the museum or take the elevator to floor M from the parking garage. It was a great way to spend an hour on a gloomy Sunday!

Interesting place to explore the multifaceted world of fashion. The exhibition Fashioning Art from Paper is as disturbing as mesmerizing, and as a consequence, definitely a must-see.On the down notes, pedestrian access is rather bad and this museum appears slightly over reliant on smart devices (e.g., no description of the pieces but a kind invitation to access the virtual exhibition to know more).

This museum is a must visit if you enjoy fashion. Always interesting exhibits. I make a point to visit every time I visit Atlanta. The gift shop has cute crafts from students and a wonderful selection of fashion books. Easy and (free!) parking.

Review №18

Dont bother. The exhibit was small, the admission fee too high for what was showcased, the staff was unknowledgeable and less than friendly. If the admission is ever free...maybe worth a quick visit.

The Fashioning Art From Paper exhibit is extraordinary. The dresses and kimonos are amazing being made out of paper.

The museum is very pretty and the fashion exhibit was displayed beautifully. The costumes on display are gorgeous, the attention to detail on every garment was perfect! A graduate of SCAD suggested that we ask for our tour to be conducted by a docent. We learned so much about each costume the movie or TV show it was in, who designed, it who wore it etc. Making our tour even more educational & fun. We cannot wait to see the museums next display! I highly recommend going!

This has to be my favorite museum in Atlanta. Seeing the Pierre Cardin exhibit was the perfect juxtaposition to the mesmerizing handmaids tale. I would love to see more film and TV fashion. The work is amazingly detailed and seeing it up close was really once in a lifetime.

Very cool kelidiscope exhibit. The music is slightly odd as it screams every once in a while. The clothing is gorgeous and well explained by the tour guide. The decor is elegant. Only accessible through a parking lot and an elevator but otherwise, very nice.

Lovely little museum. Its only a $5 admission fee if you are a non-SCAD student WITH a student ID, and its free for their students (theyre paying tuition, so how free can it be?) Anywho, great place to just look around or take a date. They have a lovely seating area. If I were a student there, I would definitely get some homework done in that corner.

I have gone to SCADfash a bunch of times in the last few years. The museum is very well done and they always seem to create & curate high quality shows & exhibits there.It is a little hard to find when you arrive but theres ample free parking and security staff people are plentiful and usually helpful in guiding you up to the museum entrance.

It’s really not a museum at all. It’s a small show room with women’s dresses. Admission is $10 for adult. There is nothing to see here, but 2 museum associates are always following you in this show room. 5 minutes is enough time to visit this place.

We visited the Guo Pei exhibition on a Sunday. It is set up very nicely and the exhibit is stunning. Lots of knowledgeable people to answer questions and a guide you can follow on your phone. I will definitely be back to see what they feature next.

Really nice for a fairly small museum. When I went there was a Pierre Cardin exhibit and one of the costumes of The Handmaids Tale. Staff was very helpful and theres a nice gift shop.
