We’re excited to announce “Azzedine Alaïa: Sculpting Fashion,” the first major US retrospective dedicated to the legendary couturier, opening November 21 at the Legion of Honor Museum in San Francisco.

Alaïa was trained as a sculptor in Tunisia, and became famous for his ability to shape and mold fabric. He spent two decades as a Paris dressmaker before debuting his own collection in 1980. In 1987, he stepped outside the industry’s calendar entirely, showing only when he felt a collection was ready.
The exhibition brings together 80 garments from the Fondation Azzedine Alaïa in Paris, including designs worn by icons like Tina Turner, Naomi Campbell, Grace Jones, Stephanie Seymour, Veronica Webb, Linda Evangelista, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga.
