Garderobe spelled with an 'e' at the end refers to a kind of room in medieval castles used for storing more valuable items. At least if we are to believe The Oxford English Dictionary. However, the word is said to originate from French, where we find a meaning similar to the one we use today. If we take a look into the wardrobe that has just been opened wide in Sundsvall, it's a spacious one, filled with everything one could desire in terms of vintage clothes and accessories.
The major fashion houses are easily listed here. Examples include Prada, Marc Jacobs, Ralph Lauren, Mulberry, Pierre Cardin, and Christian Dior. But examine the catalog closely because, sandwiched between a coat from Prada and a bag from Marc Jacobs, hangs a traditional folk costume from Medelpad!
