Image description

King George III's waistcoat; probably one of the last items of clothing he wore before his death in January 1820,This turquoise silk damask waistcoat is one of the earliest examples of costume adapted for illness. In the last months of his life, the King was very ill; pieces of fabric were inserted into the waistcoat sleeves to give them more mobility and to make dressing the King much easier c.1819-20
