# *Mantilla: Fashion Unveiled*

Nov 20, 2026 – Mar 28, 2027 · coming up

Paintings, textiles, photographs, books and contemporary fashion tracing the history of the Spanish lace mantilla.

The show follows the mantilla, the lace veil worn with a comb called a peineta, from its 16th-century origins to the present. It looks at how the garment moved from a emblem of tradition and femininity to a vehicle for identity and artistic experiment, through historical and contemporary works.

It is the second part of the museum’s multi-year fashion initiative, following Spanish Style: Fashion Illuminated, 1550–1700.
