At the Musée des Arts Decoratifs de Lyon (16 October 2009 to March 28, 2010), an outstanding exhibition dedicated to the glove, its multiple status across time. Besides the fashion accessory, you will discover more functional dimensions such as the archer's glove, the falconer's glove, the boxing glove and last but not least a famous glove, the one used by Buffalo Bill on his last rodeo. The exhibition also pays a great tribute to the excellence of French tawery corporations based in Millau and the creativity of some famous "Maisons de couture" and their designers which managed to position the glove as a sublime ornament. Do not miss the very beautiful film commissioned by the Maison CAUSSE which describes the various stages of a glove's manufacturing process. The staff at the reception of the museum is delightful and helpful. The Museum's attendants are passionate and savy.
