In between two graduations we had the time to go see the Swedish Haute Couture designer Lars Wallin's exhibition at the art museum.

Luckily I had my camera with me so I could snap some photos (without flash of course). 

The exhibition lasts until the end of august and they also have free lectures about fashion during summer. I really recommend going, it is so much more than a regular exhibition. The walls had been painted black and in combination with the music you felt like the dresses "made sense". 

Lars Wallin has dressed all the important Swedish celebrities and the Royal Family. The dresses you see below  has been made out of the famous fabrics sold at Svenskt Tenn designed by Josef Frank.

There were so many stunning pieces to look at. You could also read about who had been wearing what and to which event.

This illustration by Stina Wirsén of a Wallin dress has been produced and sold as an ofical Swedish stamp for a period of time.

In addition to the dresses, they had an atelier section to show the design process and how the dresses are made. I love when people are sharing their ways of working (that is why I do the same)!

If I were to pick only one garment it would be this white winter wonderland jacket:

Another favorite detail was this mask:

There were so many haute couture garments to look at, plus a lot of fashion illustrations. If you have to possibility you should definitely go!
