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.

Of Georgian origin, Demna Gvasalia studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp before joining the Maison Martin Margiela, then Louis Vuitton. From 2014 to 2019, her brand "Vêtements" will make her famous. His transgressive fashion shows, like his fashion, attracted the attention of the Kering group, which in 2016 offered him the artistic direction of the House of Balenciaga.

Transgressive, this silhouette adds a parka, a heavy winter jacket, to an evening outfit made up of black drill trousers, a clutch bag and heavily embroidered satin pumps.

This simple stylistic game should not, however, make us forget the skilful cut of the parka, tilted backwards, in homage to the way Cristobal Balenciaga himself worked his profiles and the skilful balance of his models from the end of the 1950s.
