Summary
"From medieval pilgrim badges and Renaissance hat decorations to jewelled brooches and twentieth-century political pins, brooches and badges are often more than practical or decorative dress fasteners; they are expressions of identity. Focusing on the V&A's world-famous collection, 'Brooches & Badges' explores the evolution of these intricate and versatile works of art, and the way in which changes in dress have dictated their use." -- from V&A website.
