@fashionnatascha @costume_society @heritage_crafts Fabulous opportunity and great collaboration
I really enjoyed this!
One of our members has curated a small part of his extensive collection into a fantastic exhibition! 'Oh Boy!' at the @FashionTextile London is the first exhibition devoted to historical boy's dress.
@fashionnatascha @Careerist94 @costume_society @heritage_crafts I've just passed this on to one of Y11s. A great opportunity.
@chicstranger @costume_society ❤️ it! 🥂✒️🌟
Have you received your copy of The Thread yet? This is my fifth issue so far, editing, producing and making the @costume_society member's magazine. Issues come out twice a year for members ✨
Went to “Colour Revolution” at the @AshmoleanMuseum this weekend! I was too exhausted to read any of the labels in depth (embarrassing for me!) so instead I just walked around and saw the pretty things, of which there were many. Here were my favourite textile moments
In the new issue of Costume (@costume_society), you'll find articles on fashion magazines in nineteenth century Latin America, the decline of female mourning wear and more! Read it here: euppublishing.com/toc/cost/57/2
@costume_society @LeightonHouse_ Congrats!
