“La mécanique des dessous, une histoire indiscrète de la silhouette”
Corps à baleines, 1770-1780
Perfection was one of the main words on women and men's vocabulary from the very beginning of XVIth century. Ever since the corsets, pushup bras and the 'false bottoms' were created, many of these strange yet abundant pieces of accessories haven't stopped working for the imagery of an ideal body. The Mecanique des Dessous exhibition set at Les Arts Decoratifs is bringing for the first time a series of corsets, belt stomachs, push ups, bustlesand even dresses from public and private collections.
Musée des Arts Décoratifs de Paris, from 5 July to 24 November 2013
