In the 1870s and 80s, bustles were considered the highlight of a woman’s ensemble. It isn’t surprising when considering the bustle featured on this wedding gown from 1886, which is currently part of our exhibition, “The Swan: Grace Kelly and A Century of Bridal Fashion,” in the Gutman Library at Philadelphia University! Please join us for a lecture by Kristina Haugland on Grace Kelly’s classic wedding gown, and her influence on fashion, this Thursday from 6-8pm in the media classroom. Admission is free and open to students and the public! -- source link
