ABOUT OUR COLLECTIONS

Dear visitors, 

After the success of "A History of Fashion", our second collections tour will open to the public in June 2023.

This next collections tour will be an opportunity for you to discover a new history of fashion, from the 18th century to the present day, through our exceptional collections presented in a new theme dedicated to the body in motion.

The link between fashion and sport will be the subject of the second display of this new collections tour, echoing the Olympic Games that will be held in Paris in 2024.

Tribute to Alber Elbaz

With great emotion, the Palais Galliera pays tribute to the designer Alber Elbaz (1961-2021).

Noticed in 1997 during his first collection for Guy Laroche, Alber Elbaz was appointed the following year to head Saint Laurent Rive Gauche.

For Lanvin, from 2001 to 2015, he developed his most brilliant creations and revived the century-old house at the dawn of the 21st century.

At the service of the woman's body, for which he does not restrict any movement, he develops a fashion of dresses, often short, with exacerbated feminine details. With mischief, he exposes the structures of the garment, showing the clean-cut edges, the seams and the zippers put outside.

In 2015, the Palais Galliera had the honour and pleasure of collaborating with the couturier who was the artistic director of the retrospective "Jeanne Lanvin", devoted to the history of the House of Lanvin and its founding couturier, whose contemporaneity he so brilliantly revealed.

In 2021, after a five-year hiatus, he launched his own label, AZ Factory.
