The (Hi)stories of Our Clothes | Montreal Fashion Week
Paid activity | Space is limited, reservation required.
Come celebrate the stories told by our clothes during a festive evening at the McCord Stewart Museum as part of Montreal Fashion Week 2024!
The Dress, Fashion and Textiles collection includes more than 28,000 garments and accessories made or worn primarily in Montreal over the past three centuries. It covers every aspect of women’s, men’s, and children’s fashion from the 19th and 20th centuries.
Some of our clothes carry in their fibers the history of our families, our cultural heritage, the nostalgia of significant events, or the familiarity of everyday use, decade after decade. Which of your clothes have a particular meaning? Which pieces would you include in a museum collection to tell your personal story? Each of our garments will tell its unique story!
