The history of underwear is about to come to light, thanks to a new fashion exhibition in London. “Undressed: A Brief History of Underwear” at the Victoria and Albert Museum will tell the story of underwear design from the 18th century to the present day, exploring the relationship between underwear and fashion, notions of the ideal body, and the ways that cut, fit, fabric and decoration can reveal issues of gender, sex and morality.
