Description
The catalog for the exhibition "Fashion in Majesty," this book accompanies the Musée des Arts Décoratifs exhibition dedicated to clothing at the Thai royal court. It highlights the convergence of royal textile traditions and French haute couture, revealing the richness of a cultural dialogue fostered in particular by Queen Sirikit, a style icon and a key figure in Thai cultural diplomacy.
Presented as an exceptional journey, the exhibition brings together rare pieces from the royal heritage and major international collaborations. The catalog captures all its splendor, celebrating royal fashion, craftsmanship of excellence, and the role of design as a language of diplomacy and identity.
