Through various themes, GIRLS explores the beauty and complexity of girlhood and the emotional journey of growing up. How has girlhood been represented? How is it remembered? And how does the idea of ‘the girl’ continue to shape visual culture and fashion?

GIRLS is about daughterhood, sisterhood, and friendship. About boredom, rebellion and coming of age. This interdisciplinary exhibition brings together visual artists, fashion designers, photographers, costume designers, and filmmakers.

The project is created in conversation with teenagers and is inclusive of LGBTQI+ youth.

MoMu’s collection presentation looks back at four decades of Belgian fashion, complemented by a selection from the museum’s historical collection. The exhibition gives an overview of the most important protagonists of Belgian fashion, based on the themes that characterise the distinctive nature of the MoMu Collection.
