The MoMu Collection Presentation is a dynamic, rotating exhibition that showcases avant-garde Belgian and international fashion from the museum's extensive archive of over 38,000 items. Visitors can explore the history of fashion through a diverse selection of silhouettes, textiles, accessories, and archival footage that is refreshed regularly.
The MoMu Collection Presentation offers an ever-evolving look into the rich history and development of avant-garde Belgian and international fashion. Housed on the ground floor, this permanent exhibition space is designed to be dynamic, surprising, and inspiring, filling a historical need for a consistent home for the museum's extensive collection. The exhibits change periodically, allowing the museum to showcase a vast array of garments, show invitations, and archival materials that trace the evolution of fashion from historical pieces to contemporary design. Central to the exhibition is the exploration of the 'Belgian fashion' identity, tracing its evolution from the breakthrough of the Antwerp Six in the 1980s to the complex, globalized fashion landscape of today. The presentation highlights a shared ethos among designers—characterized by a conceptual approach, respect for craftsmanship, and a flair for surrealism—rather than a strict geographical origin. Visitors will encounter works by influential figures such as Dries Van Noten, Martin Margiela, and Raf Simons, alongside creations from emerging talents and students of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp, offering a comprehensive view of the creative lineage that defines the MoMu collection.
