Private Guided Tour of Paul Poiret Exhibition
This season, step into the opulent, rule-breaking world of Paul Poiret — often called the “King of Fashion.” The Musée des Arts Décoratifs invites you to explore Fashion is a Feast, the first major retrospective in Paris dedicated to this visionary who liberated women from corsets and redefined modern elegance.
It’s not simply an exhibition—it’s a sumptuous, immersive journey through fashion, interior design, perfume, performance, and excess. If your Paris travel plans call for inspiration, style, and a deeper connection to French haute couture, this is the moment.

Why You Should Visit:
Paul Poiret didn’t just design clothes—he revolutionized the way women moved, lived, and expressed themselves.
This extraordinary exhibition traces his creative journey from the Belle Époque to the Roaring Twenties, through 550 carefully curated works: haute couture gowns, opulent coats, hand-drawn sketches, Art Deco interiors, perfumes, and rare collaborations with avant-garde artists.
Discover how Poiret’s vision of flowing, uncorseted silhouettes paved the way for modern fashion—from Christian Dior to Schiaparelli and Galliano.
The show also highlights Poiret’s lesser-known roles: interior designer, restaurateur, actor, and impresario. His flair for total artistic immersion is displayed through recreations of his parties (like La Mille et Deuxième Nuit), perfume bottles designed by sculptors, and the three floating barges he created for the 1925 Decorative Arts Exhibition.
You’ll also find personal touches—portraits of his muse and wife Denise, his children, and photos of intimate family moments—showcasing the man behind the extravagance.
What makes this show truly special is its depth: Poiret’s collaborations with artists like Raoul Dufy and Louis Süe were decades ahead of their time. He wasn’t just a couturier—he was a conductor of culture.
Whether you’re drawn to fashion, design, or history, this is a rich, sensual celebration of the life and vision of one of couture’s most daring pioneers.
