At Hildasholm this summer, Camilla Montan's unique dress exhibition will showcase five carefully selected garments that tell their own story through materials, craftsmanship and inspiration. The dresses bear traces of culture, recycling and personal memories - from a hand-embroidered blouse with roots in Eastern Europe to a gala dress created from a jubilee pennant for Carl Linnaeus.
Montan's work combines historical and contemporary elements, where materials such as vintage embroidery, knitted silk and patterns by Marie-Louise Ekman and Vivienne Westwood are woven together in an artistic expression. The exhibition runs in South wing from 25 June to 7 September.
Come and experience the dresses and the stories they tell!
