I remember when I saw the add
for this exhibition, my thought was that this is something I really
would like to see. But I actually forgot about it. Fortunately Hedvig reminded me. Thanks!
This exhibition is based on the collection of Art Deco clothing and accessories of Alexandre Vassiliev.
It is open 11.10.2014–18.01.2015 so it was a close call. And this was
the rarest occasion when I unexpectedly turned up on the day when the
ticket was only 1 euros.

Selection of accessories in green. Beaded purse with
chaton roses in emerald green
chaton roses in emerald green
Vintage powder boxes and (perhaps) a beaded belt with
cut steel beads (cut steel beads were one of the things I expected
to see and I wasn't disappointed)
Sequin dress in nude color. Dresses were adorned mostly with
silver-lined seed-beads or black seed-beads. But I also recognized
blown imitation pearls that I didn't expect (I've only read about them)
and nailhead beads that were described as
coral beads in some strange reason (the rim from pressing glass was visible)
Embroiderings, fringes and tassels - Fabulous!
Tegemist on Alexandre Vassilievi kollektsiooni esitlusega, kus näeb Art Deco ajastu
rõivaid ja aksessuaare. Näitus on avatud 11.10.2014–18.01.2015 nii, et
jõudsin peaaegu napilt. Ja üllataval kombel oli täna just see päev, mil
külastus maksis vaid 1 euro.
