Having imposed his creative style in the 50s, the man still remains a reference in the universe of Haute Couture. This exhibition puts the accent on his work, while overlapping it with contemporary creation. 400 dresses are showcased in the different galleries, most of them iconic pieces in echo to the pictorial, graphic and decorative works that nurtured his imagination.
