Fashionable styles of the past were made possible with all kinds of hidden trickery: undergarments and internal structures that restrained in some places and filled out in others.

From corsets to bustles to β€œbust improvers,” explore the insides and underpinnings that made historic silhouettes possible. Join Curator of Collections, Clara Berg for a historical overview and then an intimate viewing of interesting and surprising artifacts from the museum’s collection.

Two time options: 11am-12pm or 1pm-2pm
