Newly-appointed director Miren Arzalluz tells us about her plans to maintain an enticing programme of temporary exhibitions while extending the museum’s capacity to show off the treasures from the depths of its archive. We take a look at some of the painstaking embroidery work that goes into Haute Couture creations and Arzalluz flags up fellow Basque designer Cristobal Balenciaga as a reference, after a stint as the director of the Balenciaga foundation in Paris. http://www.france24.com/en/taxonomy/e...
