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.

This "Miror" suit, inspired by a Chanel suit, is built in mirror and reveals the passion of Kunihiko Morinaga, creator of the ANRELAGE brand, for the technicality of the cut. When taken with flash, the dull colours of this ensemble reveal spectacular contrasts.

When he creates, Kunihiko Morinaga thinks as little as possible about the body. Guided by a unique research axis, he chose a conceptual fashion presentation whose performative structure recalls those of Hussein Chalayan or Martin Margiela. However, through these advanced technological devices, ANREALAGE seems to question our society and its uses. For this collection presented at the Salle Melpomène of the Ecole nationale des beaux-arts de Paris on 29 September 2015, Morinaga makes the telephone, an omnipresent instrument of everyday life, the exclusive intermediary between the public and his creations. With their heads caught in large 3D headphones to hear the music of the show, the audience plunged into darkness had to photograph the models with the flashes of their phones to discover their prints. ANREALAGE immerses the audience in an allegory, that of current fashion presentations where, for nearly 10 years now, trained laptops have been the silent ovations of an ultra-connected audience

This ensemble questions the photophobia of fashion museums, the exhibition of textile heritage being dictated according to strict criteria and a low light exposure, limited to 50 LUX.
