Exhibition: Sois belle ! When Fashion Tells the Story of Women's Condition (1830-1914)
From September 19, 2026 to September 20, 2026, at Musée de Vire Normandie : Exhibition: Sois belle ! When Fashion Tells the Story of Women's Condition (1830-1914) (mode & design).
What do the extravagant crinolines, the strict corsets, the necklines, and the veils tell us? The history of women's fashion reveals the place accorded to women in French society during the 19th and early 20th centuries: the parure for the domain, the foyer for the space. Far from being a mere question of taste, the artifices that constrain or glorify silhouettes bear witness to the heavy attention paid to the female body.
