Attention lovers of French culture and art de vivre - the Musée des Arts Décoratifs (MAD) is preparing an evening that will go down in the annals of fashion... On July 6, 2025, the iconic institution in Paris's 1st arrondissement will host its first grand ball, orchestrated by Sofia Coppola herself. Yes, you're not dreaming! Under the artistic direction of the famous American director, the event promises to be the ultimate rendezvous for aesthetes of style and elegance.
Much more than a social evening, this ball will immerse you in French art de vivre, with an ultra-chic nod to the centenary of the 1925 Decorative Arts exhibition. We can already imagine a parade of elegant gowns and tailor-made suits twirling beneath the museum's gold, in a highly glamorous atmosphere.
The legendary balls of Vienna and New York will have to watch out, because Paris could well dethrone them with an evening that's already shaping up to be the event of the year! Do you know about the MET Gala? Just as in its image, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs' grand fashion ball is set to be a veritable showcase of style, while serving a noble cause: supporting the museum and its precious collections.
And because excellence is not satisfied with half measures, the charity evening will take place in two parts: a small exclusive party, followed by a larger event open to talent from design and fashion schools. More information to come ...
While you're waiting to walk the red carpet, check out MAD's upcoming fashion exhibitions, including"Mode Nouvelles Générations. 35 ans de l'ANDAM","Christofle : Une Brillante Histoire", or"La Mode en Modèles. Photographs from the 1920s-1930s", and enjoy an early immersion in the prestigious setting of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs de Paris.
Stay tuned, the surprises are just beginning...
