"They’re known for their elegance, style and poise, so it’s no surprise the French are also top dogs when it comes to lingerie.
Charting a century of French underwear, the Lingerie Française exhibition features more corsets, bras, thongs and panties than you can shake a stick at…and will make you think long and hard about those greying cotton briefs lurking at the back of your knicker drawer.
