Reviews
Was a very cool place to learn about fashion and the costs of our clothing. It was free when I went in 2019. Sad to see it is temporarily closed. I learned alot and made some oaths to better my choices on clothing.
A Museum about sustainability in textiles. The past, present and a bit of future of ecological fashion. You can leave a lot about the right way to live without useless consumption of buying stuff. A must to see.
Slightly disappointing. The bottom floor was entirely a shop, with some interesting items but overall not great for a sustainable fashion museum which should not be encouraging new purchases. The second floor has lots of brilliant information about new and future materials but has no interesting fashion designs to show how these can be used. The second room of the second floor has some very uninspired student designs which look very basic and don’t show the potential of these new fabrics
This museum has a lot of potential but doesn’t execute on this well
Interesting museum with a focus on sustainability in the clothing industry. You learn a lot of information about how cotton clothes are produced and the societal and environmental effect of that. I personally loved the first floor, which highlights new breakthroughs and innovative practices for recycling, reusing, dying fabrics without chemicals, replacing plastic with biodegradable options etc. It gives a feeling of hope that change for the better is possible and it makes me wonder why it's not becoming standard practice already.
Throughout the museum you can also scan information boards with a bracelet which give you tips on how to be more conscious about your clothing choices and what you can change to make a positive impact. You can email the tips to yourself at the end.
Please note that, despite the word "fashion" in its name, the museum is not necessarily focused on fashion per se but on the clothing industry. I had a bit different expectations going in so I was not sure if this is what I wanted to see but once I knew what to expect overall I enjoyed it a lot still and visited for a second time to see their new addition, which offers a broader historical and cultural perspective.
This museum shows the sustainability within the fashion industry. There is a section for decorating a pair of white shirts, which costs 15 EUR. Because this activity does not include dyeing, it might be a bit surprising but it is really interesting to designing your own shirts.
2 stars cause the concept is good. But bad story telling and flow, tiny, things are inaccessible, broken down or falling apart. Happy I didnt have to pay with my museumcart; but €10,- is ridiculous. Felt very neglected.
Well laid out exhibition. Bottom floor addresses the past, ground floor the present, top floor the future. A thought provoking n informative experience.
Very well designed with attention to information layout, interactivity and set design.
Although I understand the message of trying our best around purchasing of materials, the tone came across a little aggressive to those who cant afford or are able to buy alternative, high quality clothing.
Some parts of the exhibition were also not functioning well. ¼ of the space just being a shop too.
The ticket was only 7.50 but I wouldnt pay more to view it again
