This fabulous 1890's mansion situated opposite the Musée d'Art Moderne, which opened to the public in 1977, brings fashion and costume history to life! Although the museum's permanent collection contains items of mainly 19th-century dress, wonderful temporary exhibitions allow the public to enjoy thousands of fabulous items from three whole centuries of fashion history (18th century to the present day). A feast of fashion awaits lavish costumes from days gone by, as well as accessories, including jewellery, walking sticks, hats, fans, gloves, umbrellas. Ticket prices vary depending on the exhibition.
