The Duches of Cadaval is going to present an exhibition titled “Unforgettable Wedding Gowns,” featuring bridal gowns and accessories at her 14th century palace situated in Evora, Portugal. Starting on June 7th, the exhibition will run for three months.
Curated by couturier Hubert de Givenchy, the exhibition is inspired from the Church of Saint John’s marvelously gilded main altar. The showcase symbolizing Claudine’s passion for Portugal and fashion, will see three dresses from Givenchy’s archive, three from Spain’s Balenciaga Museum, the Yves Saint Laurent gown of Baroness Hélène de Ludinghausen, the dress of Princess Minnie de Beauvau by Philippe Venet and the dramatic style Carolina Herrera designed for Cadaval’s daughter.
