A fashion lover walks through the Louvre museum and describes...
"Everyone visits the most famous museum in the world through who they are. I am a fashion critic. So it was as a fashion critic that I began a long stroll through the Louvre, of which I now know, if not every nook and cranny, at least every hem, every belt, every trimming, every sleeve flounce..."
Walking through the Louvre as if the museum were the setting for a fashion show, considering five thousand years of art history - from the statuettes of the Department of Oriental Antiquities to Delacroix, via Vinci, Goya, Rembrandt and all the greatest masters - through the
prism of her passion for clothing, such is Sophie Fontanel's delightful challenge. A journey much less futile than it seems.
