The New Costume Gallery at the V&A

I am holding off on posting about the Liebster blog award as I can't decide on which blogs to award it to (there are to many amazing ones). In the meantime I am going to write up some post that are long overdue.

A few months ago I went to the V&A and spent a fabulous couple of hours drooling over the costumes in the museum's new costume gallery.

Here are a few (actually quite a few!!) photos of my favourite costumes/accessories. :)























I really want a spencer like this 
EDIT: Opps I meant pelisse not spencer!!!



Oh and gown like this
















Oh and this













The gallery is wonderful and so much better than it was before. It's definitely worth a visit to London to see it.
