Dries Van Noten, Les Arts Décoratifs, February 28 – August 31
One of this year's most intriguing fashion exhibitions is showcasing clothes by Belgian designer Dries Van Noten, with the exhibit pieces taken from the collections of both the designer and the Paris Museum of Decorative Arts itself. It would be hard to call this showing a retrospective. Rather, it is yet another of Van Noten's customary voyages between East and West, drawing inspiration from the sphere of the irrational. As a prelude to the exhibition, Van Noten displayed his summer men's clothing collection for 2014 last year in Paris, featuring 19th-century cloth patterns that the designer had found in the archives of the very same Museum of Decorative Arts that is now hosting this exhibition. 107 rue de Rivoli
