DEEDS.CALENDAR: Last chance to see: Louvre Couture – Louvre Paris | until 24.08.2025
On 24 January 2025, couture arrived at the Louvre with the ‘LOUVRE COUTURE. Art and fashion: statement pieces’ exhibition. A fresh and fascinating dialogue between masterworks from the Department of Decorative Arts and key pieces from the history of contemporary fashion from 1960 to 2025, the exhibition includes work by designers ranging from Cristóbal Balenciaga to Iris van Herpen. Visitors will embark on a journey into the heart of the museum’s collections over a space of almost 9,000 square metres. The exhibition features over a hundred different looks and accessories: each item has been selected for its intellectual, emotional or poetic resonance with the history of the decorative arts, shifting styles, craftsmanship and ornamentation in order to illustrate the close ties between fashion and art. For the first time, forty-five of fashion’s most emblematic houses and designers have loaned pieces to the Louvre.
