The exhibition looks at the shift from the stuffy corsets of Victorian England to the free-spirited bohemianism embodied by Bloomsbury.

In letters inviting friends to her Sussex home, Virginia Woolf would often sign off with a simple directive: “Bring no clothes.” Not that she was expecting them to arrive naked – although, given the famously tangled love lives of the Bloomsbury group, her aristocratic band of early 20th-century British creatives, that wouldn’t be entirely outside the realm of possibility. She merely meant that visitors should come as they were.

” On view are shell necklaces worn by Woolf and Bell, original sketches by Grant, and a silk Mariano Fortuny dress that once belonged to the patroness Lady Ottoline Morrell.
