Infrared / Ultraviolet
November 2024 – The Anne Fontaine Exhibition
Step into a festive and sumptuous universe where light reigns supreme.
White and silver set the tone with their wintry brilliance. From the entrance, a spectacular outfit crowned with a dramatic feathered cape sets the stage.
In the street-facing display cases, a fiery red warms pristine white, sparkling against a backdrop of snow. The materials create contrasts between bold transparencies and the comforting warmth of finely crafted knits and furs.
As if traveling through the entire spectrum of light, the lobby shimmers in the ultraviolet glow of evening gowns. A sculptural breastplate, like a blade of molded metal, along with sequins, pearls, rhinestones, and lamés transform the space into a ballroom scene or high-society soirée where luxury reigns. This is a celebration of opulence, carefree elegance, and revelry.
The showcased creations are exclusive pieces, crafted by master artisans chosen for their skill and expertise. Deeply committed to preserving French craftsmanship and ancestral techniques, Anne Fontaine collaborates with these artisans to bring her visions to life. They meticulously embroider and rework noble materials like organdy and silk with the attention to detail that defines the designer.
Extend the experience with a Couture Cocktail at the Bar du Faubourg.
