This is a small museum with a fascinating collection of fabrics from mediaeval to modern, religious to secular. Upstairs there is an equally involving collection of twentieth century clothes and accessories. All the exhibits are beautifully displayed and the gallery attendants are sympathetic and patient. I took with me twenty fifteen year old students with sketch books (the Picasso Museum opposite had the most surly attendants that I've ever had to deal with and we were pushed through as swiftly as was possible). The shop is full of interesting, cheapish things. Look out for the 1960s bikini made out of fabric daisies.
