In addition to the historical core, consisting of altar frontals and sacred vestments of Campanian production, dating from the late seventeenth century up to the nineteenth century, and embroidered fabrics and artifacts made at the Mondragone Institute, dating from the nineteenth century onward, the Museum offers a rich repertoire of contemporary upholstery fabrics and trimmings manufactured in Leuca, covering the first half of the twentieth century, as well as fabrics and accessories from the Mare Moda Capri collection by Livio De Simone.
Particularly interesting is the Clothing Section—resulting from generous donations by prominent Neapolitan aristocratic families and renowned tailors, among which the Sarli tailoring house stands out for the quantity and quality of the garments. The dresses on display express, through attention to detail and refinement of craftsmanship, the level reached by Neapolitan tailoring between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
An additional touch of elegance and refinement is provided by an exhibition of hats, parasols, and gloves, dating from the late nineteenth century to the first half of the twentieth century.
