As a new exhibition explores a century of mourning attire, Lindsay Baker discovers a strong connection between grief and glamour.

The high-rise waist smooths and flatters, while the elegant wide-leg column drapes beautifully for a timeless silhouette

It features princess seams that beautifully contour the body, and a classic silhouette with a boat neckline in the front, which transitions into a v-neckline at the back

The V-neckline frames the upper body beautifully, while the flutter sleeves add soft coverage and graceful movement
