One of the most acknowledged European design Museums with a vast collection of art nouveau works and as well as textiles, the Museum Bellerive/Design Museum hosted for three months this unique exhibition. PAP(I)ER FASHION showcased the most unusual paper creations while concentrating on the use of paper and paper-like materials in fashion.
