Dutch Costume Museum

About Dutch Costume Museum

The global village has overstretched itself when it comes to fashion. All over the world, the clothing range has become identical. New designs are in vogue for just one season. As a response to this fast fashion, consumers take a renewed interest in sustainable fashion with a story, in which craft and handwork are prominent. This stirs up a new curiosity in traditional folk costumes. Local and traditional garb, with its characteristic scent of form and proportion, is a source of inspiration for today‘s fashion designers. The Dutch Costume Museum shows everyone who is interested in expressing the identity of the people by the explosion of colors, combinations and designs, reflecting the history of the Dutch folk costumes, and the stories and related practices in a magnificent canal house from 1670 in the heart of Amsterdam. This way these stories will not be forgotten, in a time when folk costumes are gradually vanishing from our streets.
