The Chateau de Versailles and the Musee Galliera present
The 18th Century Back in Fashion: Couturies and Fashion designers in the Grand Trianon
In a pink marble palace 2 kilometer west of the palace, the fantastic style of the 18th century is explored both in its historic context, and the context of its continued influence and reinterpretation.
The historic collections are juxtaposed with 20th century and more recent haute couture.
