National Collection lends to local museum.

The Victoria and Albert Museum has lent The Royston Vasey Corset Museum a number of items from its collection. To mark the occasion the curator, Mr A,C.Pitt-Rivers and trustee, Dr Bradbury Winter have arranged for Mrs Maris Piper to model some garments for the occasion. Mrs Maris Piper is the owner of Kinky Korsets in Holmfirth and the wife of Mr Peter Piper, MD of Piper’s Pickle Factory. Mr Pipers ancestory goes straight back to the Peter Piper of Pickled Peppers fame. The event is sponsored by the Dreadnaught Corset Co and the pictures are by Mr Jack Fox-Talbot, our staff photographer.

One of the items on loan, an 1875 Black silk Corset.
