Lady Ottoline Morrell was an aristocratic patron of the arts throughout the early twentieth century, best known for being on the periphery of the Bloomsbury Group. She was famed — and often mocked — for her eccentric style of dress, but her surviving wardrobe collection has never been studied in any detail. By combining the multi-disciplinary resources available it has been possible to contextualize many of the pieces within the collection, which will be revealed through several case studies which have benefited from this wide-ranging study. The collection itself spans several hundred items of textiles, dress, and accessories, and reveals numerous insights into the taste of this famed unconventional dresser, from which a different story of her style can emerge.
