In 2025, the Musée du Louvre presented its very first exhibition devoted to fashion. A hundred or so silhouettes and accessories are on display in the museum's collections: creations interact with the museum's historical works and objects, fashion and art compliment and respond to each other in a journey full of surprises. For this exhibition, the spotlight is on some of the world's most renowned fashion houses and designers: Dior, Christian Louboutin, Chanel, Rick Owens, Schiaparelli, Balenciaga, Jacquemus... A real dream for haute couture enthusiasts.
