Historic Maternity and Nursing Wear

Join one of our curatorial team for a chance to see our collection of maternity and breastfeeding wear. We will take an in-depth look at how pieces have been adapted in order to be worn throughout pregnancy and nursing. This interesting and seldom-looked at area of costume history should prove to be a really fascinating topic.
Admission
£5 per person, please book in advance.
