Extraordinary and sometimes spectacular, headdresses offer protection from the sun or bad weather. They also provide symbolic protection to individuals who wear them. Hats, feather headdresses and crowns are sometimes symbols of power or identity. In many societies, they mark the statuses of individuals, from young grooms to dancers, shamans, warriors and monarchs. From donation to exhibition Founder of 'la maison rouge' in Paris, Antoine de Galbert collected more than 500 headdresses over a period of nearly 30 years, amazed by their beauty and peculiar shapes.

  • Fashion Design
    Fashion is a general term for a popular style or practice, especially in clothing, footwear, accessories, makeup, body piercing, or furniture. Fashion refers to a distinctive and often habitual trend in the style with which a person dresses, as well as to prevailing styles in behaviour. Fashion also refers to the newest creations of textile designers.[1] The more technical term, costume, has become so linked to the term "fashion" that the use of the former has been relegated to special senses like fancy dress or masquerade wear, while "fashion" means clothing more generally and the study of it. Although aspects of fashion can be feminine or masculine, some trends are androgynous.[2][3] Fashion design Fashion design is the art of the application of design and aesthetics or natural beauty to clothing and accessories. Fashion design is influenced by cultural and social latitudes, and has varied over time and place. Fashion designers work in a number of ways in designing clothing and accessories; and, because of the time required to bring a garment onto the market, must at times anticipate changing consumer tastes. Fashion designers attempt to design clothes which are functional as well as aesthetically pleasing. They must consider who is likely to wear a garment and the situations in which it will be worn. They have a wide range and combinations of materials to work with and a wide range of colors, patterns and styles to choose from. Though most clothing worn for everyday wear falls within a narrow range of conventional styles, unusual garments are usually sought for special occasions, such asevening wear or party dresses.

    The Journal of Dress History Volume 5, Issue 3, Late Summer 2021 Front Cover Image: Detail, Yūzen Pattern Dyeing on Silk, a Textile Design and Color Sample for Girls’ Kimono, Early Showa period, circa 1926–1945, © The Private Collection of Keiko Okamoto, Tokyo, Japan. Yūzen dyeing techniques produce one of the most popular and precious Japanese kimono textiles. But when the word is expressed in English, it means both “hand– painted dyeing on textiles” and “look–alike styles of prints.” It is because the word, yūzen, was used for various new dyeing methods developed in the late nineteenth century during the Japanese Industrial Revolution. These new methods were aimed at multiple reproduction of hand–painted yūzen dyeing that was originally developed in the seventeenth century. Moreover, the new meaning was used by respective artisans and merchants in the Kyoto kimono textile industry, which brought further complications to the definition. In the 1950s, when yūzen dyed textiles were being introduced into the mainstream kimono business, one industry researcher concluded that it was too complicated to define the word, yūzen dyeing.
