Reboot Fashion

Borås ( S ) > Dauerausstellung

This exhibition explores the path towards a circular textile future through innovative production methods, while also inviting individuals to engage and influence change.

The fashion industry needs a reboot. Clothing and fashion are fun, creative, and a way to communicate. At the same time, the global textile and fashion industry is a threat to people, the environment, and the climate. Low prices and persuasive advertising lead to overflowing wardrobes. The textile industry consumes significant amounts of natural resources, creates pollution, and in many countries, working conditions are poor. It is a problem without easy solutions. A fundamental change is needed from both companies and consumers.

The Reboot Fashion exhibition presents examples of innovative thinking from companies and researchers within the industry, along with practical tips on how to care for your wardrobe to make it more sustainable. The exhibition also presents examples from history, underscoring the sustainable thinking that was once ingrained in society.

The new permanent exhibition will be a forward-looking complement to the two existing permanent exhibitions, Textile Power and Clothes & Couture, which chronicle the textile industry's impact on Borås's development and the evolution of fashion in the 20th century.

Reboot Fashion provides insight into the climate and environmental impact of fashion, but also shows that everyone can do something to improve the situation.

Das Provenzalische Trachten- und Schmuckmuseum

Grasse ( F ) > Dauerausstellung

Das Museum für Provenzalische Trachten und Schmuck befindet sich am Eingang zur Altstadt von Grasse im einstigen Wohnsitz der Marquise von Cabris, der Schwester von Mirabeau. In dem vornehmen, geschichtsträchtigen Anwesen, in dem nicht länger das rege Treiben des früher hier untergebrachten Revolutionstribunals herrscht, liegt rund um ein wunderschönes Treppenhaus verteilt eine Reihe kleiner gemütlicher Salons, die Besucher zum Flanieren einladen.

Das Museum zeigt heutzutage eine Sammlung, die aufgrund der Qualität und der Vielfalt der Kleidungs- und Schmuckstücke, die aus dem 18. bis Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts stammen, einzigartig ist: Röcke, Caracos, Korsetts, Droulets (Art Trachtenjacke), Chatelaines, Kreuze, Ohrringe, usw. Das bahnbrechende Museum ist heute eines der ganz wenigen, die ausschließlich traditionellen Kleidungs- und Schmuckstücken aus der Vergangenheit der Provence gewidmet ist.

The Goldberger

Budapest (H) > Dauerausstellung (ab Mai 2025)

The new permanent exhibition "Goldberger ..." demonstrates the plant that once began as manufactory with only a few people working there, which successive generations of the family constantly modernized and developed unti l products from the factory were world-renowned. Only the name was preserved the same after decades of nationalization and not the factory's former splendour. The exhibit offers numerous interactive elements for the visitors while visiting the factory. We hope to make textile printing technology and the development of the textile industry more understandable to them. The selection commemorates the Goldberger Company via documents, sample books, photos and paintings. The choice of topic was given: the first workshop owned by the family opened in the present museum building at the end of the 18th century.  The exhibition presents the technical development of textile press from the guilds to nowadays. Textile pressing means the coloring and patterning of textile with tools. It all goes back to primitive traditions: primitives colored and ornamented their own bodies with tools made of pumpkins, wood etc.Pressed textile was already made in the antiquity in the East. They applied pigment grains mixed with glue on the textile. Nevertheless, textile pressing first appeared in 1702 in Europe.The first blue dyer workshop opened at the end of the 17th century in Hungary. By the 18-19th century, blue dyers were present in many towns of the country. They used press stilts: They put a kind of mash on the textile which was removed after the coloring dried. Thus, the pattern remained on the textile. The products of blue dyer workshops are still very popular nowadays. Howe, handiwork was taken over by the so-called perr¬otin machine. It moves the textile and the stilt in varied order. This type of machine is still in operation in a few of the workshops. Industrial textile was revolutionized by the invention of Thomas Bell, England, 1783. Textile production became unbroken. The cylinder press machines first came to Hungary in the end of the 19th century and were in operation until 1980's. A new invention concerning textile coloring came in the 20th century. The silk industry in Lyon applied a Japanese technology. It was realized in the 1930-40's. This technology dispersed around the 1960’s in Hungary. The demand, however, required new inventions. The rotation film press was invented around the 1950's. The technique that is applied nowadays dispersed in the 1960's in Hungary. The store of the Fibre Museum holds several large machines used in textile production. They will be shown in the exhibition ward to be reconstructed. In the meantime, scale models, original sewing machines and authentic copies will present techniques used in textile production continue

Our Colonial Inheritance

Amsterdam (NL) > Dauerausstellung

Colonialism is not a thing of the past. It has shaped the world: our physical, mental and personal world. Colonialism lives on to this day. In the exhibition 'Our Colonial Inheritance', we look at the Dutch colonial history and presence, in Indonesia, Suriname, Curaçao, Sint Maarten and many other countries. You will not get to see and hear the 'known' history, there is more to see and learn. The exhibition shows how colonialism shaped the world of today, and how people endured colonialism. Learn how people tried to create their own lives, rebelled and remained in charge. Are you open to a multivoiced perspective?

Clothes & Couture

Borås (S) > Dauerausstellung

Clothes & Couture tells the story of the creation of Swedish everyday fashion, which was inspired by the couture exhibitions held in Paris between the 1930s and 1970s. We welcome you to a retrospective exhibition about the Borås company Bröderna Magnusson (‘the Magnusson Brothers’), and its journey through fashion history. In the ‘Clothes & Couture’ exhibition, the Textile Museum of Sweden shows how twentieth-century Paris fashion was reinterpreted to create practical clothes for women in Sweden. The exhibition how the Borås company Bröderna Magnusson Damkonfektionsfabrik AB, like many others in the business, took their inspiration from the undisputed capital of fashion: Paris. The manufacture of and trade in ready-made clothes developed during the twentieth century to become one of Sweden’s staple industries. The town of Borås and the surrounding area became a centre for the ready-made clothing industry, and the garments produced here were sold all over the country. One of the companies was Bröderna Magnusson’s, which manufactured womenswear at a somewhat higher price point, featuring advanced cuts and hand-sewn details. All clothes were designed by the company’s head of design, Ylva Segh, who regularly visited the couture shows in Paris. Bröderna Magnusson’s paid great attention to detail, and the garments were produced using a high level of craftsmanship despite being made in a factory. The Textile Museum of Sweden has created slideshows showing the details of the clothing, and developed patterns based on selected garments that have been transformed into three-dimensional animations so as to show visitors how they were constructed. For those who enjoy sewing themselves, there will be sewing patterns available for purchase. These include the useful ‘Pop-Around’ dress from 1953, which was marketed as an everyday, house and party dress. The exhibition was designed in collaboration with the paper artist Bea Szenfeld and includes both large and small installations by her, inspired by the themes of the exhibition.

Weiße Kleider. Die Ausstellungswerkstatt im Herrenhaus Cromford

Ratingen (D) > ab 25.01.2025

Die Ausstellungswerkstatt „Weiße Kleider“ im neuen Ausstellungsraum des Herrenhauses der Textilfabrik Cromford zeigt Damenmode aus der Zeit zwischen 1770 und den 1850er Jahren. Nach historischen Vorlagen aus dem Rokoko, dem Empire und dem Biedermeier verdeutlichen die sieben nachgeschneiderten Modelle die Zusammenhänge zwischen Mode, Frauenbild und Gesellschaft. Die präsentierten Kleider sind alle weiß und lenken somit den Fokus auf die Linie: die schmale Taille, das tiefe Dekolleté, der ausgestellte Rock. Kein buntes oder extravagantes Muster verstellt den Blick auf die Form. Den schlichten einfarbigen Kleidern sind an der Wand historische Einordnungen und Querverweise gegenübergestellt. Diese informieren über Form, Farbigkeit und Materialität der historischen Kleider und ordnen sie so in einen gesellschaftlichen Kontext ein. Museumspädagogische Elemente laden zudem zur spielerischen Auseinandersetzung mit verschiedenen Körperformen ein.
