Endyesthai (To Dress): a Costume Culture MuseumThe exhibition at the Benaki Museum in Athens, Greece from 24 March to 23 May is based on the costume collection of the "Vassilios Papantoniou" Peloponnesian Folklore Foundation. It is comprised of a wide range of museum-grade clothing from the 18th to the 21st century, including masterpieces by designers/couturiers known the world over, such as , Christian Dior, Jean-Paul Gaultier and others, as well as internationally renowned Greek designers, such as Jean Dessès, Sophia Kokosalaki and others. In presenting this collection, which is unprecedented by Greek standards, the exhibition aims to highlight the necessity of creating a Museum of the Culture of Costume in Greece. To this end, besides presenting collectible clothing, the exhibition also touches on the issue of the different functions of clothing and the different way costume can be interpreted by the science of costume design. more from culture »
