Abstract

"As cultural institutions continue to disseminate their holdings, now through digital technologies for reproduction, a challenge to humanities collections looking to digital curation and dissemination of their holdings is to make the quality and significance of the virtual representation meet or exceed that of the original object (Martin et all 2016 p.270)." The Drexel Digital Museum (DDM) has been experimenting with new media production for exhibition, preservation and publication of historic fashion since 1999. This presentation traces the successes and challenges of our search to bring the highest quality virtual experience of dress to the largest and most inclusive audience through the evolution, and disappearance, of cutting edge technology.
