ABOUT OUR COLLECTIONS

Dear visitors,

The exhibition 'Gabrielle Chanel. Fashion Manifesto' is currently on display on both levels of the museum.

To discover our permanent collections, we invite you to visit us in Spring 2021. For the first time in the history of the Palais Galliera, the new galleries on the ground floor will offer you a new perspective on the history of fashion, from the 18th century to the present day, through a renewed tour of our collections.

The long dress in jacquard jersey with stripes on a black background, by designer Julie de Libran for Sonia Rykiel, cites the striped work characteristic of the brand's eponymous designer, who died on 25 August 2016.

The piece is accompanied by a long scarf and a singular turban, created from a long-sleeved sweater draped around the head. This set of elementary and diverted forms thanks to the lift is another less stupid signature of Sonia Rykiel.

This silhouette is representative of the creative work around the memory of a house and its echo in contemporary fashion.
