<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="mso-fareast-language:ZH-CN">Largely due to past embarrassment, the study of underwear is a relatively modern phenomenon. Fashion&#8217;s hidden history is revealed in this exhibition that includes corsets,
 bustle pads, petticoats and brassieres, as well as a selection of men&#8217;s underclothes, bringing together the garments that secretly and privately reduced, lifted, padded, adorned, revealed and concealed the body.&nbsp; The objects range in date from 1750 to the
 present day and will be displayed alongside images and materials from the V&amp;A&#8217;s archives.

 by world famous fashion designers, including Calvin Klein, Christian Dior, Gianni Versace, Jean Paul Gaultier and Vivienne Westwood are shown alongside everyday essentials by major retailers such as Dickens &amp; Jones and Marks &amp; Spencer.&nbsp;
