Azzedine Alaïa (1935–2017) was a renowned fashion designer and collector of vintage fashion. His extensive collection, showcased in a major exhibition at the Palais Galliera, Paris, is a testament to his fascination with the history of couture and his desire to conserve its heritage for future generations. The collection spans from the 19th-century elegance of Jacques Doucet and the House of Worth to the names that shaped 20th-century fashion, including Chanel, Balenciaga, Dior, Schiaparelli, and contemporary innovators such as Jean Paul Gaultier and Alexander McQueen. Captured in specially taken photographs, these meticulously crafted pieces are a tribute to Alaïas unerring tastes, the couturiers who inspired and influenced him, and his endless respect for the craftspeople that created such objects of lasting beauty.
