Past Exhibition

Fiesta Looks to the Skies

~ THIS EXHIBITION IS NOW CLOSED ~

Gaze upwards to the celestial canvas above with Fiesta Looks to the Skies. This year’s annual Fiesta® exhibition—opened just before the Total Eclipse in San Antonio— showcases extravagant gowns, trains and formalwear of Fiesta royalty that draw inspiration from the sky and stars above.

Over the past 115 years, many coronation robes have reflected our wondrous fascination with the skies. This exhibition celebrates our timeless fascination with the heavens, showcasing the exquisite craftsmanship and celestial themes woven into each regal garment. From the 1920 blue-green sequined Queen of the Court of Birds gown to the fireworks and skyrockets on the train of the 1965 Duchess of Fiery Festivals, you’ll be transported to the heavens as you admire the artistry and craftsmanship in these stunning works of art.
