Couverture rigide. Condition: Comme neuf. Paris 2026. 1 Volume/1. -- Comme Neuf -- Reliure éditeur cartonnée illustrée . Format Grand in-4°(.31,6 x 23,6cm )( gr ). ------ 192 pages . *************************** Présentation éditeur : "" Au printemps 2026, le musée des Arts décoratifs présente une exposition inédite sur le vêtement à la cour de Thaïlande, qui retrace les relations entre les traditions textiles locales et la haute couture (à la française), ainsi que l'avènement de la mode comme un marqueur de la culture thaïlandaise à l'international et son rôle essentiel dans la diplomatie du royaume. Organisée en collaboration avec le Queen Sirikit Museum of Textile (Bangkok) et SACIT (Sustainable and Craft Institute of Thailand), l'exposition s'inscrit dans le cadre des célébrations du 340e anniversaire de la première mission diplomatique française au royaume de Siam et du 170e anniversaire de l'établissement officiel des relations diplomatiques entre la France et la Thaïlande. L'exposition met en lumière la figure de la reine Sirikit, icône nationale récemment disparue. Passionnée de mode, elle joua un rôle central dans la modernisation de la tenue de cour, présentant ses créations lors de voyages officiels avec le roi Rama IX. La Reine Sirikit entretint en effet dès les années 1960 des relations étroites avec de grandes maisons de couture françaises et européennes. En collaborant pendant plus de trente ans notamment avec Pierre Balmain puis avec Erik Mortensen, son successeur à la tête de la maison, elle réinventa l'élégance royale thaïlandaise, préservant son héritage tout en lui assurant un attrait international. Engagée dans la préservation des traditions, elle travailla également sans relâche pour sauvegarder les arts textiles et l'artisanat de son pays. Réunissant près de deux cents tenues, accessoires, objets royaux, photographies, échantillons de tissus et broderies (de la maison Lesage et de la princesse Sirivannavari), l'exposition offre un aperçu unique de la riche tradition artisanale thaïlandaise dans le domaine des textiles, des bijoux et des accessoires. Elle rend manifeste l'usage de la mode comme une forme de diplomatie culturelle qui œuvre à travers l'image, l'artisanat et les matières. À travers 7 chapitres et 150 illustrations, le catalogue revient également sur l'histoire des relations entre les deux pays et, plus spécifiquement, la collection thaïlandaise du musée des Arts décoratifs, décrit les techniques du tissage artisanal thaïlandais et, enfin, donne un aperçu de la bouillonnante scène de la création contemporaine en Thaïlande.…
