Fashion Sense? with Ulster Museum
The Fashion Sense? project has been designed alongside the Renoir and The New Era exhibition at Ulster Museum. Using Renoir’s La Loge (The Theatre Box) (1874) as a starting point, students are asked to create a cover and pages of a zine, making a comment on fashion and identity in contemporary culture.
For more information about Fashion Sense? or if you would like to run the project in your school contact education@courtauld.ac.uk

Fashion Sense? project sourcebook
The Fashion Sense? sourcebook includes source material, analysis and learning activities, and guidance on how the project can be run in secondary schools and colleges.
There are two versions available, one for use on screen and the print version that can be copied and given to students.
Research material from MA History of Dress students
We asked each of our MA History of Dress students to create a short film investigating an aspect of fashion and dress depicted in La Loge. These can be used by secondary students as a starting point for research or as inspiration.
