On 28 March 2013, Oriole Cullen, Curator of Fashion and Textiles at the V&A, gave a lecture on Ballgowns: British Glamour Since 1950, at the Society of the Four Arts, Palm Beach, Florida.
The lecture highlighted the themes of the V&A exhibition of the same name, looking at what defines British evening wear during this period and how the role of the ball gown has changed over the past 60 years.
The lecture was hosted jointly by the V&AAF and the Society of the Four Arts Campus on the Lake and was followed by a reception and book signing in the Pannill Pavilion.
