Costumes, make-up, sets: to give birth to a film, many artistic trades are mobilized. There are also craftspeople who we don't often think of, but who are just as essential to the success of these films: wigmakers. In film, music videos, fashion and haute couture, wigmakers are in constant demand.
To discover this very special art, thePeruke workshop is opening its doors to us, and invites us to discover its creations, on the weekend of April 5 to 6, 2025. Through this presentation, the craftsmen explain their unique know-how, recognized and used by major players in the world of cinema and live performance. Wigs from this Parisian workshop can be seen in Luc Besson's film Valérian, the Netflix series Lupin, and Xavier Giannoli's Lost Illusions.
This unusual event is part of the 19th Journées européennes des Métiers d'art. Every year, these craftsmen and women of exceptional skill invite us to discover their profession and their creations, to highlight this very special branch of thecraft industry.
From March 31 to April 6, 2025, over 500 events are being organized in Paris and the Île-de-France region: discover French know-how, and cultivate your passions with these original events!
