This is archived material. It is for reference purposes only.

As a genuine ode to the Parisian art de vivre, the Palais Galliera invites us to dive into the capital of fashion by discovering the history of the art of couture.

The exhibition Une histoire de la mode unveils both the story of the museum, and the evolution of style. Discover trends through historic pieces as well as pieces by contemporary designers.

In all, 350 pieces (clothing, accessories, graphic and photographic arts) are displayed. But there will be a constant addition of other works during the exhibition, creating the perfect excuse to come back.As a bonus? Works displayed all along tk The first display runs  until March 13, 2022, and the second one will be from April 2 onwards.
