| - Man's court waistcoat, 1780s, English; ivory silk taffeta, embroidered coloured silks, flowers, altered 1870-1895 (en)
- Man’s court 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 ivory silk taffeta. The fronts and pocket flaps are lined with ivory silk twill, the pockets with bleached linen. The waistcoat is embroidered-to-shape with silk floss in white, grey, brown and shades of green and pink in a pattern of flowers and leaves with a trellised border, on the pocket flaps, below the pockets, around the neckline and along the front edges and hems. The fronts are embroidered with repeating floral sprigs. There are 12 worked buttonholes along the left front with 11 (1 missing) embroidered buttons on the right front.
The waistcoat was altered in the late 19th century, probably for theatre costume; the back was replaced. (en)
