Last Friday, I was in Antwerp, Belgium. Â Besides visiting Fritz Mayer van den Berg museum where I saw the art of one of my favourite painters Brueghel, I have also visited the fashion museum Het Momu. The moment you step in, you get amazed by its architecture wonder building.
I visited the exhibition Zwart/Black.
“Momu’s newest exhibition illustrates the historic phases of the colour black, with examples from painting, historic costume and contemporary fashion. It also looks more deeply into the textures and the potentials of black in diverse materials, including fur, leather and lace. In addition, the exhibition includes masterpieces by contemporary designers who, like the city of Antwerp, have a special connection to black.”
It was a total blast! My favourites from the contemporary designer pieces were Comme des Garçons, Anne Demeulemeester, Olivier Theyskens and Ricardo Tisci for Givenchy.
