A true exploration of history, fashion, and heritage, with art from the 19th century and contemporary creations in conversation.

The exhibition brings together over 100 creations from prestigious fashion houses such as Balenciaga, Lagerfeld, and Iris van Herpen. These pieces reinterpret classic masterpieces, creating unexpected links between art and fashion. You'll discover antique tapestries, sculptures, and 18th-century furniture enhanced by contemporary fashion creations, a stunning fusion of art history and modern design.

A Set Design by Nathalie Crinière

The visual experience of the exhibition is elevated by the scenography of Nathalie Crinière, who also designed the Dior Gallery and exhibitions for Schiaparelli.
