Description
Heavenly Bodies at the Met explores the ecclesiastical garments created by well-known designers inspired by Catholic liturgy. Ellen Devlin's poetry collection describes these gowns and garments with a vivid, concise language reminiscent of Elizabeth Bishop. Many of the garments become reflective journeys through the poet's own life, offering an emotional awareness that is rendered in her work. This collection invites readers to consider the intersection of fashion, faith, and personal experience.
