Tuesday 30 May 2023 at 18.30

 

For the first time in Europe, a fashion museum is dedicating an exhibition to Diane von Furstenberg.

 

For this occasion and for the first time, the designer has opened the doors of her archives. Nicolas Lor, the curator, tells us about the nuggets unearthed in these vast textile, graphic and photographic collections and about the conception of the project. He also tells us about the many interviews conducted with Diane von Furstenberg. These rich interviews provide an original insight into the work of the designer and her famous wrap dress, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year.

 

By Nicolas Lor, curator of the exhibition Diane von Furstenberg. Woman Before Fashion and director of the publication of the same name. Scheduled for release in autumn 2023 by Rizzoli. With experience gained in prestigious Parisian fashion houses, Nicolas Lor is in charge of exhibitions and publications at the Fashion & Lace Museum since 2021.
