The Polish fashion history part got me!
They have a lot of tours and exposiciones: the permanent and the temporary. We took one of the permanents, but high was about textile’s history: starting with the machines, ending with the fashion. I don’t want to spread any more spoilers as the structure of the tour is made to impress you more and more with every next floor.

The best interactive museum in Lodz!
The museum in an interactive way shows the past of the Lodz textile mills. The possibility of touching the exhibits or participating in free workshops encourages children to visit. In addition, the museum also has the Lodz Wooden Architecture Open-Air Museum. Thanks to it you can see live the architecture of those times

Extensive and spacious museum
Lodz has several museums worth visiting. The M. of the Textile Industry is one of the largest and most modern. It holds a large collection of textile making machines from pre-industrial revolution and into modern day, a large display of fashion in the 20th century, a nice panorama video presentation of the workings of a textile factory and a building with working textile machines. When we entered the latter, the guide that was there gave up on us the second he realized that we didn't speak Polish. This is quite typical for Lodz, where people are more reluctant to try English than any other place I have visited in Poland. Nevertheless, this museum is really worth a few hours, and if you visit Lodz just for a few days this should be on your list. It is housed in the impressive factory buildings called "The White Factory". It has a small restaurant in the back yard, and on the back of the plant there are an outdoor museum with reconstructed worker's homes. While we were in the museum, it housed the International Textile Art Triennale, with two floors of amazing textile art.
