Labassa Women

Over 700 people have lived at Labassa, the majority of whom were women. Labassa Women is a celebration of their lives across two centuries – glamorous socialites, intrepid trailblazers and those rendered invisible through domesticity and divorce.

Take a walk through time and experience some of these stories as told through imagery, costume and object.

Meet Vicki Shuttleworth, author of Labassa: House of Dreams, and hear more about how these women contributed to the mansion’s unique history, lifestyle and survival.
