The comprehensive collection of historical and contemporary fashion at the Cologne

Germany.
The special exhibition ‘LOOK! Fashion Designers from A to Z’ presents a selection of the
most important new pieces acquired over the last few years. The time frame spans from the
1960s to the present and includes designs and pieces from collections, prêt-à-porter and

Dior, Diane von Furstenberg, Emilio Pucci, Etro, Fendi, Gianni Versace, Givenchy, Goldpfeil,
Gucci, Hermès, Irina Heemann, Issey Miyake, Jimmy Choo, JOOP!, Karl Lagerfeld for H&M,

Opening Ceremony, Paul Smith, Prada, QooQoo, Rena Lange, Salvatore Ferragamo,
Thierry Mugler, Ungaro, Valentino, Vivienne Westwood, Walter Steiger, X’S, Yves Saint
Laurent and Zadig & Voltaire.
The random principle of alphabetical order is reflected in the exhibits’ suggestive
presentation and creates a surprising and colourful kaleidoscope mirroring the image of
fashion from the last few decades in its many facets, fragments and flavours.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a bilingual catalogue (German – English) published by
Seemann Verlag.
The exhibition is sponsored by: Sal. Oppenheim Foundation, member of the "Stifterverband
für die Deutsche Wissenschaft" (Donors' Association for the Promotion of Humanities and
Sciences in Germany), Overstolzengesellschaft, Moch Figuren, Apropos The Concept Store.
