| - Man's waistcoat, 1770s, French; oyster-coloured silk satin, embroiderd floral motifs, altered 1870-1910 (en)
- Man’s waistcoat with a round neckline, curving fronts and skirts reaching to the top of the thigh. Each front has a pocket and pointed pocket flap. The fronts and pocket flaps are made of oyster-coloured silk satin, the back of grey worsted twill. The pocket-flaps are lined with white silk satin. The waistcoat is embroidered-to-shape with silk floss in white, maroon, yellow and shades of green, blue and pink in satin stitch, in a pattern of flowers with a border of small swags, with a ground of repeating floral sprigs, on the pocket flaps, below the pockets, along the necks, front edges and hems. There are 13 worked buttonholes along the left front with 13 embroidered buttons on the right front.
The waistcoat was altered in the late 19th century, probably for theatre costume; it was relined and linen tape ties added to the back. (en)
