Paris undoubtedly occupies a unique place in the fashion world so it comes as no surprise that it would be home to some of the most stimulating exhibitions of style. At the forefront is the impressive Musee de la Mode recently, the museum was home to a modern retrospective of Dutch design duo – Viktor and Rolf. One of the most prestigious institutions houses the collection and archives of Yves Saint Laurent. Another prominent venue, Musee Galliera, has explored the relationship between fashion and the art of the garden. Perhaps the highlight is an intimate tour of a Balenciaga exhibit with the couturier's friend and living fashion legend, Hubert de Givenchy.
