The 11th episode was also recorded remotely. I reached out to Julia Petrov, who is the Curator of Daily Life and Leisure at the Royal Alberta Museum (RAM) in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. We met at the 2018 Canadian Fashion Symposium that I organized in Edmonton, when she hosted a tour of the Royal Alberta Museum’s fashion collection for us, and prepared a special presentation highlighting some amazing pieces in their collection. We’ve also collaborated on a forthcoming volume I edited on Ethical Fashion and Empowerment, for which Julia wrote a chapter on the pussy hats. The Royal Alberta Museum recently moved into a brand new building in downtown Edmonton, and I wanted to ask Julia more about her work as a curator, researcher, scholar, and educator.
