Presentations

The Costume Historian Presentations feature exquisite replica clothing created especially for each talk by Gillian Stapleton.

Original garments and costume accessories are in attendance too, and some may be handled by audience members (very gently, and wearing the protective gloves provided). Each presentation lasts for approximately one hour, and there is plenty of time afterwards for questions and chatting.

Jane Austen’s Wardrobe

Fashioning the Past

Jane Austen’s Christmas

Jane Eyre The Well Dressed Governess

200 Years of Royal Brides
