Exhibition halls of the capital’s museums subordinate to the capital Department of Culture, is a true treasure trove of fascinating information and the most valuable knowledge. They tell about history, art, archaeology, and paleontology, and you can also learn about fashion, popular trends of the past, and current trends there. To find an exhibition to your taste, you can use the “Mosbilet” service. We explain where fashion and trend lovers will enjoy themselves and where it is worth buying a ticket this season.
19th-century costumes, imperial porcelain, and a pearl ship
This aesthetics begins with the past. This is proven by the exhibition “The connection of the past with the future” in the palace of N.A. Durasov in museum-reserve “Kuzminki-Lyublino”. Here are artistic reconstructions of dresses from the early 19th century, theatrical costumes from the late 19th century, and costumes from films recreating the atmosphere of October 1806, when Princess Ekaterina Dashkova visited the estate as a guest. On the mannequins are dresses and hats, tailcoats and shirts, and in the display cases an abundance of jewelry — from earrings and brooches to necklaces.
No less elegance is found at the Kuskovo estate. An exhibition is taking place in the Large Stone Greenhouse “Royal Copenhagen”. The exhibition features 500 porcelain items — from painted plates to glazed vases. All of these are works by Danish ceramists from the collection of the Dowager Empress Maria Feodorovna, wife of Alexander III, a Danish princess Dagmar by birth. It was she who started the trend for Scandinavian artistic porcelain in Russia.
Products of various shapes and types are also presented in the Hermitage pavilion. An exhibition is held here “Porcelain by Nina Malysheva. A Gift with History”. The exhibition features over 160 works by the outstanding sculptor of the Dulevo Porcelain Factory. Among them are small sculptures dressed in the costumes of different peoples of the world, elegant caskets, and unusual accessories, such as gilded porcelain earrings.
Lovers of beauty and refinement are in for another old pavilion of the manor — “Grotto”. In the niches of his offices stand wooden and clay dolls half the height of a human, whose costumes are studded with shells, corals, and mother-of-pearl. The “Grotto” will amaze not only with its interior items but also with its entire interior decoration. The pavilion’s offices are adorned with shells from the Mediterranean and Black Seas, as well as from the Indian, Atlantic, and Pacific Oceans. Among them are even very rare ones — shells of mollusks such as the common turritella, helmet tuna, pearl ship, and sea ear.

Costumes for movies and handmade jewelry
In the capital’s museums, you can not only get acquainted with fashion but also try your hand at being a designer. Such activities are especially enjoyable for children. For example, in workshop “Uchi-nit” At the Moscow Museum (building No. 3), they hold workshops on working with textiles. They explain the basics of composition, color, and design, and teach how to create unique items using fabric, threads, and needles — ranging from soft toys and decorative objects to accessories.
The S.A. Yesenin House-Museum in Bolshoy Strochenovsky Lane invites you to make it with your own hands a brooch made of felt with decorative embroidery. During the class, guests will be explained what a stiff base and the invisible thread technique are, and will be helped to craft a decoration using felt, beads, and sequins. The finished item will be packed in a gift box.
Fashion enthusiasts will also like it in MosKino film park — the world’s largest location for on-site filming. In one of its pavilions is the prop and costume center “Firebird”. More than 2.5 million items are stored here: furniture, dishes, posters and signs, costumes from different eras. In the pavilion, you can see clothing from the films “Serf”, “Godunov”, “Sophia”, “The Bremen Town Musicians”, “Gagarin. First in Space” and others.
In addition, they organize for guests bus and walking tours. They can be visited by the whole family. The route goes through open film sets. Participants will learn about the filming of romantic comedies and historical detective stories, see the largest chromakey in Europe, stroll through a Russian village, pre-war Moscow, and Western cities.
Last summer, the film park joined loyalty program “Mosbilet.”
The whole family should also visit the “Moskvarium” at VDNH. They closely follow trends here — as evidenced by the exhibition “Capybaraboom”. The exhibition is inspired by the largest rodents on the planet, who have conquered the internet with their charisma, calmness, and friendliness. Images of capybaras will come to life in a multimedia space, introducing viewers to their habits and lifestyle.

Uniform and swimming goggles
Some of the city’s museums do more than just talk about past trends; they themselves set trends, becoming popular spaces that invite exploration and study. Among them new building The Moscow State Art Gallery of Vasily Nesterenko on Butyrskaya Street.
In eight large halls, one can see monumental historical canvases (including “Deliverance from the Time of Troubles” measuring four by 8.3 meters), spiritual paintings, landscapes of Russia and hard-to-reach places on the planet, theatrical portraits. The canvases depict officers in uniforms, duchesses in lavish dresses, clergymen in robes, ladies in national costumes, children in contemporary clothing, and many other characters.
Another exhibition worth seeing this season is “Luzhniki. A Place of History” in Moscow Museum of Modern Art on Gogolevsky Boulevard. In the museum space, the project constructs several parallel lines: it reconstructs key episodes from the history of “Luzhniki” and shows how sport intertwined with social and artistic processes of different times. The exhibition includes works of art, objects of Soviet and post-Soviet material culture, and large-scale installations.
Among the most unusual items are large boxing bags, a sneaker with wings, a semicircular table for playing table tennis, mannequins wearing swimming goggles and caps. Here you can also see the uniforms worn by representatives of various sports—from tennis to boxing.
