Behind the Scenes of the Belle Époque: Secrets of Women's Wardrobes

Backstage in the Belle Époque: Secrets of Women's Wardrobes

How was that refined elegance we admire in old photographs and paintings created? And what lay behind the apparent ease? We invite you to take a look inside the wardrobes of fashion-conscious women at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries!

Corsets and underwear, dresses, hats and accessories - we will learn how the famous S-shaped silhouette came about and what price had to be paid for beauty. We will look at historical objects, discover fascinating stories and enjoy a light, relaxed conversation.

The event will be hosted by Alexandra Chudnovska, an antiques dealer, collector, photo artist and founder of the private museum
