Fashion Folklore, Costumes Populaires et Haute-Couture 

Fashion Folklore, Costumes Populaires et Haute-Couture . Styles, origins, uses and periods are set side by side to reveal their essence. A traditional Tyrolean hat beside one by Chanel, a Romanian blouse beside an Yves Saint Laurent outfit and a Jean-Paul Gautier jacket next to a Breton shirt front. It all goes to show how fashion is constantly reinventing itself. Heritage, locality, individual creativity and a touch of genius are all it takes for something new and exciting to emerge from our cultural roots. Nearly 300 items from Mucem’s textiles collection or on loan from elsewhere.
