The Moscow Department of Cultural Heritage invites you to the exhibition “Architecture and Fashion. In the Flow of Time”. It will be held in the Worker and Kolkhoz Woman pavilion at VDNKh. Visitors will be able to trace the relationship between architecture and fashion: learn how the trends of the time were manifested both in the historical buildings of the city and in the fashionable images of its residents.
“Moscow is a city where, walking along the streets, you can see architectural monuments of completely different styles: classicism, baroque, modernism, constructivism and many others. The exhibition “Architecture and Fashion” is designed to show this diversity, the entire palette of the capital’s cultural heritage sites and their unique architectural details. Last year, the event received a great response, and we are pleased to invite everyone to visit the new exhibition,” said the head of the Department of Cultural Heritage of the City of Moscow.
The exhibition includes eight sections dedicated to different architectural styles and their refraction in fashion: from mature classicism to art deco. The Ostafyevo Museum-Estate, the Khlodov-Panteleyev House on Zemlyanoy Val, the Lopatina mansion on Bolshaya Nikitskaya, the Kievsky Railway Station building, the V.P. Zotov Bakery on Khodynskaya Street and other cultural heritage sites of the 18th–20th centuries will be presented here. Against their background, you can see costumes from the corresponding eras. For example, the I.S. Turgenev Museum-Estate on Ostozhenka and outfits that the heroines of the great writer’s works could have worn, a masterpiece of constructivism, the Narkomfin House on Novinsky Boulevard, combined with the geometry of the dress — the costume of the new man of the 1920s, as well as the building of the Russian State Library on Vozdvizhenka Street and art deco silhouettes.
The authors of the exhibition believe that architecture serves as a guiding thread for fashion, which in turn inspires architects to new ideas. These two trends have been and remain a reflection of any era.
At the exhibition, guests will be able to join a guided tour and panel discussions with experts in the field of architectural history and fashion. The project will be of interest to anyone interested in historical and cultural heritage and creative industries.
The organizers of the exhibition “Architecture and Fashion. In the Flow of Time” hope that its holding will contribute to increasing interest in the topic of the cultural and historical heritage of the capital, the history of Moscow architecture, its preservation and development.
The exhibition can be seen from November 2 to 21 every day except Monday, from 11:00 to 22:00.
