Hot weather, Heatwaves and Corsets: what to wear in a Victorian summer

  • Resumen

  • This month we had the honour of visiting the Symington collection of corsets at an archive in Barrow-upon-Soar. Sarah Nichol was kind enough to chat to us about the kinds of corsets Victorian women wore to keep cool while on holiday, or while undertaking their daily summer activities! So how comfortable were corsets?Does the archival evidence back up the claims of the day?And what’s the story behind this huge Victorian factory in a market town of Leicestershire? We would like to extend a huge thank you to Sarah Nichol. You can find out more about her work and the collection here:https://leicestershirecollections.org.uk/http://www.instagram.com/leicestershire_collections/John Liddell’s ebay store can be found here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_dkr=1&iconV2Request=true&_blrs=recall_filtering&_ssn=john-liddell&_oac=1
