QUIRKY WORLD ... Victoria’s secret: 45in knickers worth thousands
A pair of Queen Victoria’s cotton knickers with a 45in waistline could fetch thousands of pounds when they go under the hammer next week.
The pants will be sold alongside nightdresses, stockings, and hats worn by Queen Victoria and her third child, Princess Alice. All items of clothing, from the Yesterday’s World museum in Sussex, bear the stamp VR — short for Victoria Regina.
