When New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art needed another gown by the Italian designer Elsa Schiaparelli for a 2012 show, it borrowed one from the Goldstein. The only special-purpose design museum in the Upper Midwest, the Goldstein has 31,000 objects that span world history from Roman glass to Danish-modern furniture. Its centerpiece is 21,000 pieces of clothing and accessories, including shoes and hats ranging from European couturier fashion to contemporary athletic wear. Gallery 241, McNeal Hall, 1985 Buford Av., St. Paul; 612-624-7434; goldstein.design.umn.edu
