Museo della Moda e del Costume

The Museo della Moda e del Costume is a major department within the Pitti Palace in Florence. The collection is housed in the Palazzina della Meridiana, a pavilion south of the main building that you can reach directly from the Boboli Gardens. Founded in 1983, the museum presents a comprehensive collection of more than 6,000 objects documenting the history of fashion from the 18th century to the present day. Here you can admire historic costumes and accessories that illustrate the evolution of clothing and style over several centuries.
