Museo del Automóvil y la Moda de Málaga

The Museo del Automóvil y de la Moda in Málaga brings together a private collection of restored vehicles and haute couture pieces, with a route spanning from the late nineteenth century. It pairs classic motoring with the history of dress.

The museum occupies thirteen rooms in Málaga and presents a private collection that traces the evolution of the car and fashion from the late nineteenth century. In the vehicle section, some one hundred restored cars by marques such as Mercedes, Hispano Suiza, Bugatti, Bentley, Rolls-Royce and Ferrari are on display, designed for those who follow the history of mechanical engineering and design.

The textile section features more than two hundred pieces of haute couture, arranged in several exhibitions with their own titles, among them « De Mariano Fortuny a Galliano », « De Balenciaga a Schiaparelli » and « Apoteosis ». Each room offers a different narrative, so visitors move from models on wheels to period and designer outfits without leaving the building.

The visit is designed for enthusiasts of motoring, fashion and the history of design, as well as for families. The museum admits visits with pets, something rather unusual in this type of venue.
