Temporary exhibition 2026 at the Musée de Vire Normandie: What do the extravagant crinoline and the severe corset have to say to us? Cleavage and veils? Why is the history of women's fashion so curious and complicated? Its incredible sophistication is the best indicator of the place of women in 19th-century French society. The devices that modified, constrained and exalted the female silhouette reveal the extent to which women's bodies were a preoccupation during this period. Open Wednesday to Sunday.
