King of Fashion
The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute presents Poiret: King of Fashion, an exhibit of designs from dressmaker Paul Poiret, who is known for liberating women from corsets and putting them in pantaloons in the early 20th century. If you've been reading "The Way We Were," our look back at 130 years of American Salon, you'll remember that we devoted an entire page to Poiret when we covered the period 1910–1920. Fortunately, you've got plenty of time to catch the exhibition, which runs from May 9 through August 5. 212/535-7710 —N.P.

Pssssssssst!
"Hold, please!" Come July, that phrase will no doubt be at the tip of every beauty aficionado's tongue when Sebastian Professional's Shaper and Shaper Plus make their big screen debut in New Line Cinemas' remake of the cult classic movie, Hairspray. As the official hairspray of the film, the iconic styling tools will star as "Ultra Clutch," performing their magic both behind the scenes and on screen. In preparation for their close-ups, both products will get new packaging with pretty pink graphic accents. They're coming to salons everywhere this summer. sebastianinspires.com/hollywood —K.D.
