But Du Coeur a la Main is not just about finished pieces. Five real seamstresses from Dolce & Gabbana's Milan atelier work live during the exhibition, crafting bodices, bustiers and corsets before visitors' eyes. "This seamstress is sewing lace to form a dress, while another is draping fabric by hand," Müller said. "It's extraordinary. This is not just fashion – it's art."
