What: Galeries Lafayette Paris Haussmann is exhibiting five iconic dresses in its windows on behalf of the 90th anniversary of Air France as well as highlighting the airline's legendary planes, comfort, uniforms, gastronomy, and design. 

Why it is important: The exhibition highlights its rich history and offerings and provides a unique opportunity for visitors to connect with Air France's legacy and experience.

The dresses are made from elements of Air France's heritage and current pieces, creating a connection between history and modernity.

Inside Galeries Lafayette, pop-up stores will be open, offering specially created or reissued objects to commemorate the anniversary.
