Kew Historical Society Inc
Clothing - Lace Collar, 1910s
The Fashion & Design collection of Kew Historical Society includes examples of textiles dating from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. Some of the textiles, were used as items of clothing, others as items of household decoration, or simply as travel souvenirs. These textiles were created both domestically and internationally. Predictably with the growth of an ethnically and culturally more diverse community in Kew after the Second World War, textiles, clothing and objects in the collection inevitably reflected this diversity. Lace collar attached to the neckline of a garment. It is narrow over the back , widens at the shoulders and tapers down in a triangular shape to a point on either side at the front. lace, women's clothing, collars -
