Hubert de Givenchy has curated an exhibition of forty classic haute couture evening gowns from Cristobal Balenciaga, Phillipe Venet and his own famous label and they'll be available for the public to swoon over from 7th May at the Chateau.
You will be able to examine up close the iconic black evening dress that Holly Golightly wore as she breakfasted at Tiffany's.
And apparently Queen Fabiola of Belgium's Balenciaga designed wedding dress (1960) will also be on display, including the luxe, long and bejewelled veil.
Check out Chateau Haroue's website for more details on its architectural and historical significance. It sounds like the perfect meeting of French architecture and French fashion to me. Now all I need is an air ticket.

Sounds like a great exhibit. I would love to see some of those gowns. A castle would also be nice to visit or live in :)
