The Incas and their predecessors are renowned for their ceramics, their precious metalwork and their colossal stone buildings. But how did they dress?

There will even be a workshop at which Peruvian women will demonstrate their traditional weaving techniques. The exhibition, aimed at a broad public, will feature around 200 objects from the museums? own holdings, together with items from the Linden Museum in Stuttgart, MAS in Antwerp and Belgian private collections. 23 November 2018 to 24 March 2019 at the Royal Museums of Art and History (Parc du Cinquantenaire) in Brussels.
