Today visit at The Fashion and Textile Museum of London. If you have the chance to come here in the city, really go.
The exhibition of the moment is Undercover: the evolution of underwear.
And, as the description on the website says, "it traces the evolution of underwear from health garment, shape definer to fashion ‘must have’. It explores a number of themes such as boudoir to everyday glamour [...]; research and innovation’s impact on the types of underwear we wear; and how the changing face of underwear advertising and marketing meshes with social and cultural changes. The exhibition presents a visual demonstration of how female underwear has evolved as women’s role in society changed. It encompasses the changing trends from the ‘flatten it’ to the ‘push it up’ to the ‘let it all hang out’! Undercover contains some exquisite pieces from a wide range of private and public collections..."
And here they go!
And, as always, here you have my favourites:
There was also an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G bodysuit from La Perla, but unfortunatly I have no pictures of it. Such a shame because it was the most beautiful piece of the entire exhibition.
