A dialogue between two dress sculptors who, each in their own way, have strongly influenced the world of creation, between art and haute couture.
Azzedine Alaïa (1935-2017) was a French-Tunisian designer and couturier, internationally renowned for his sculptural gowns. He earned recognition for his unparalleled mastery of cut, placing him at the same level of legendary couturiers like Balenciaga and Vionnet. He was a great collector, having acquired over 15,000 pieces of the most important masters in the fashion history spanning from the 18th to the 21st.
Madame Grès (Germaine Krebs, 1903-1993) was a French great couturier and haute couture designer. Her style, characterized by antique-inspired drapery and pure lines, earned her international renown.
