Costume at Waddesdon: A Selection of Lace
Waddesdon Manor, 27 March – 27 October 2013
Curated by Rachel Boak
A selection of lace acquired by Baroness Edmond de Rothschild (1853–1935) is displayed outside the Family Room and shows eighteenth-century lappets, part of a fashionable woman’s headdress. Baroness Edmond collected the exquisite French, Brussels and Venetian lace now at Waddesdon, along with the popular buttons, on long-term display.
