MoMu (Mode Museum) is the fashion museum of the City of
The museum is known for its immersive scenography.[2] Visitors are "immersed in the world of the designer or the theme", allowing for a unique experience with every exhibition.
Exhibitions
MoMu organises continually changing theme exhibitions about a designer or fashion-related theme in an exhibition space specifically adapted to each exhibition. Each exhibition is created around a total narrative in which not only articles of clothing are displayed, but a complete context is presented. For example, sources of inspiration for a designer, connections with other art disciplines, multimedia collaborations, etc. MoMu works with designers and their team to develop the exhibition concept and the design of the exhibition. Since 4 September 2021 MoMu also continually shows a part of its own permanent collection after adding an exhibition space through an extensive three year renovation.[3] MoMu's exhibitions have also travelled to Paris, Stockholm, London, Tokyo, Munich, Istanbul, Enschede and Melbourne. Below an overview of past, present and future exhibitions.[4]
