Museu da Moda do Japão

Um museu diferenciado na arquitetura, acervo e interação com o público:

We present to you our collection fovr you to learn the origins of garments with ethnic and historical fashions and textile collections.

We display the replica of the garments that Napoleon 1 wore during the coronation ceremony held in 1804. French artisans precisely reproduced the replica, which was based on David’s painting. We show five different structures of clothing, which are quite similar worldwide in most cultures: loincloth, open-top, front-open, wrap-around and figure-accentuating. Since ancient times, natural dyeing has been done using plants and animal sources. Those textile-dyeing works have kept astounding people with their sophisticated , subtle and profound beauty, selecting colors every season. Additionally, we display textile-dyeing works!!vividly and dynamically colored by synthetic dyes. We display great textile-dyeing works from four kinds of natural materials: silk, wool, cotton and hemp, depending on the season. We introduce fashion designers who were symbolic of the 20th century as well as their works held in our collection. We display all kinds of fashions, from Robe à la FranÇaise in 18th century to Bustle style in the 19th century, and some changing styles in the 20th century.
