Una quarantina i capi presenti, ai quali si sommano cappelli, copricapi e corsetti.
La mostra, curata da Laura Tessaris, storica del costume, esplora non solo le trasformazioni stilistiche ma anche le storie umane che si celano dietro le vesti per un viaggio nella storia del costume, dalle frivolezze degli abiti da ballo della seconda metà dell’Ottocento al rigore dei completi femminili ispirati alle uniformi negli Anni Quaranta.
