In the spectacular setting of Palazzo Fortuny a glamorous exhibition is in progress (until 8 May 2011).
It is dedicated to the famous Venetian designer Giuliana Coen (1920) aka Roberta di Camerino, who reinvented the fashion for women since the ’50s.
A total look not only for clothes but replicated and involved also on different accessories using velvet, color combinations and shapes at all unusual and extravagant. And then scarves, umbrellas, luggage and bags as well (the famous “Bagonghi”, so appreciated by Princess Grace of Monaco).
Roberta di Camerino has represented a true revolution of color that brought a breath of newness and freshness in the fashion world.
She has invented the trompe-l’oeil by printing buttons, belts, lapels and pleats on materials.
After the great success of the Museum Revoltella of Trieste, the exhibition has landed in the venetian lagoon, where the famous Fortuny Museum is an ideal setting in perfect harmony of colors and styles among the paintings of Mariano Fortuny and the collection of Roberta.

Hours: daily 9:00 to 19:00.
25 December 2010 and January 1, 2011 closed.
Admission: € 9.00 €, reduced € 6.00 €. Free for children 0 / 5 years
