This article is dedicated to fashionable exhibitions and museum-type corporate art institutions, which are one of the characteristic features of the museum system and one of the most successful development strategies. These can be items of decorative and applied art that reject the usual commercial space and want to occupy a place not just in a museum, but definitely exhibit next to artworks. To understand this problem and the stages of the process of establishing and developing a fashion museum, you need to analyze the experience of the world’s leading museums located in the main fashion centres. The purpose of the study was to analyze the status of the Italian Fashion Institute as one of the world’s largest fashion centres. The author concludes that every year there is an increasing interest in studying the history of costume, and there are prerequisites for creating exhibitions and museums dedicated not only to the history of costume but also to modern fashion in general. The example of Italy’s experience, which many people associate with one of the world’s fashion centres, was considered in order to reflect on modern exhibition activities.
