Fashion. Next Gen. ANDAM’s 35^th Anniversary

From October 1, 2024, to March 30, 2025, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs celebrates the 35^th anniversary of the ANDAM (National Association for the Development of Fashion Arts) through a selection of 17 fashion silhouettes, showcasing its visionary perspective on young creation. The Musée des Arts Décoratifs is home to the national collection of fashion and textiles, which is among the world’s most substantial, spanning from the 18^th century to the present. Since 1989, ANDAM has annually awarded emerging designers from the French and international scenes, providing them with the means, through its competition and comprehensive support program, to establish themselves sustainably in the fashion landscape. The collaboration between the Musée des Arts Décoratifs and ANDAM aims to highlight these new fashion players. Winners are invited to offer emblematic pieces from their award-winning collections each year, enriching the museum’s archives of contemporary fashion. Through themes such as the art of tailoring, body deformation, or transparency, the silhouettes and accessories of the 2023 and 2024 winners converse with those of their predecessors from the Museum’s collections. This presentation highlights ANDAM’s openness to the diversity of fashion, which is characterized by aesthetic proposals, technical research and craftsmanship, and the expression of each creator’s personal universe.
