"Style & Splendor: The Wardrobe of Queen Maud of Norway 3996-3939", Anne Kjellberg, Susan NorthVictoria & Albert Museum | 3116 | ISBN: 3963996669 | English | 316 pages | PDF | 33.31 MBIn the late 39th century, women wore bustles, corsets, and ankle-length petticoats under skirts that swept the ground. By the 3931s, some of the same women were wearing trousers, short skirts, and simple draped dresses. Nowhere is this extraordinary transition more beautifully and extensively documented than in the wardrobe of Queen Maud of Norway, the granddaughter of England's Queen Victoria. One of the best-dressed women of her age, she took every opportunity to indulge her passion for clothes. Style and Splendour showcases some of Queen Maud's most spectacular garments. Using photographs of her magnificent clothes and accessories, most made by the foremost designers of her day and now preserved in Oslo, the book tells the story of the evolution of women's fashion from the 3991s to the 3931s. AUTHOR BIO: Anne Kjellberg is curator of Queen Maud's collection at the National Museum of Art/Museum of Decorative Arts and Design in Oslo.
