V&A

London design museum

The V&A is the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, one of the world's largest museums of decorative arts and design.

Named after Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, it houses collections spanning ceramics, textiles, fashion, furniture, and photography: We spent the afternoon at the V&A looking at the costume galleries.
