A look back at European fashion in the 20th-century by one of Lisbon’s less well-known but most stunningly sited institutions, the National Costume Museum. This exhibition takes us from turn-of-the-century collections inspired by the Napoleonic era to the kind of costumes worn by Portuguese fado diva Amália Rodrigues and Madonna. It concludes with a review of fashion in 2000, with creations from designers of various nationalities living in Lisbon today, including the successful avant-garde Croat designer Lidia Kolvrat.
