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.

Clare Waight Keller's creations for Givenchy emanate a deceptive simplicity. For her first haute couture collection for Givenchy, she is offering Palais Galliera this silhouette named "Brahmeide" in homage to the eponymous butterfly species. The cup is a reference to the archives of the fashion house created in 1952 by Hubert de Givenchy : a short cape that fits in the style of certain liturgical costumes. A rounded seam accompanies the rounded shoulders, details found on 1960s models of the claw. The material is not velvet, but embroidered with silk hairs of various shades of blue, gathered in "handful eyebrows", an abundant ornamental technique on 18th century dresses. The only concession to masculinity, the strict pleated black wool caviar trousers complete the line of this graphic model.
