Museo Carrelbo - Fashion is a Dream

 

 

La Moda es Sueño ('fashion is a dream') is a 25-year retrospective at the Museo Cerralbo, a 19th-century baroque palace in Madrid that present a Who's Who of Spanish fashion from Cristobal Balenciaga and Pertegaz to Manolo Blahnik, Sybilla and Adolfo Domínguez.

The exhibition features 117 pieces by 50 designers and is presented as a dialogue with interior of the museum, whose hand-painted ceilings and agate panels house a mix of rococco mirror, tapestries, Meissen porcelain, baroque furniture and other antiques.

I believe this beautiful flower dress is by Hannibal Laguna (though I'm not sure, and if anybody can help identified the other Spanish designers on these photos... please do!)
