Exposition : De la bête à l'habit
Exhibition, Cultural
in Quimper
-
There's more to Breton costumes than linen, hemp and wool! To find out for yourself, step inside the doors of the Musée Départemental in Quimper. Until the end of the year, it invites you to put a curious nose in the wardrobes of your elders. From headdresses to clogs, look for the little beast. Ready to investigate?

Puzzles, manipulations, materials to touch, weaving looms, board games... What better way to get to grips with this animal side of things? On the heads, round hats are often adorned with rabbit or beaver. Delicate feathers and embroidered motifs of butterflies, bees, sardines... adorn the headdresses. Silk goes without saying, but will you be able to recognise the 9 animals whose furs keep your shoulders warm? And did you know that even whales get involved?

A whole economy takes shape before your very eyes: small craft workshops, factories, as well as coypu, mink and ostrich farms... An original and instructive dive into a world of fur and feathers!
