Some excerpts from a program about an exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art called The 18th century woman, in 1982. The host is Marisa Berenson and the woman being interviewed is Diana Vreeland. More after the cut.

I’m not sure this exhibition is still there, but earlier this year I visited Malmö museer, in Malmö, Sweden, and they had a small exhibition with a few 18th century clothes and objects.

Livrustkammaren, or the royal armory, is a great museum located inside the Swedish royal castle. They have some great 18th century clothes and things in their permanent exhibition, and at the moment they’re having an exhibition about shoes, many of which are from the 1700s. The rest of their stuff is fantastic as well though, one of my favourite museums.
