About the exhibition
From every angle, focus on clothing in libraries!
In May, June and July, the libraries of Paris invite you to an exploration of clothing in all its dimensions: historical, social, cultural and political.
On the occasion of this highlight, the library invites you to take a leap into the past, through an exhibitioncomposed of fashion photos and drawings from the 1900s to the end of the 1900s 40, as well as extracts from period magazines.
Most of these documents are taken from digitized collections of the specialized libraries of the City of Paris as well as the library digital Gallica, enough to discover the richness of these collections!
