Discover the Paris of the Belle Époque through its art and fashion on this captivating guided tour. From elegant society portraits to intimate domestic scenes, we’ll explore how clothing revealed status, identity, and the shifting rhythms of life in a rapidly changing city. Corseted silhouettes, tailored menswear, and children’s outfits become visual clues to evolving lifestyles, gender roles, and leisure practices.

You’ll see how painters masterfully captured textures, fabrics, and movement, turning fashion into a storytelling tool within their compositions. Every detail—cuts, accessories, hairstyles, and posture—is examined, revealing how style spoke a language all its own.
