We have commissioned some costumes for trying on in the new museum, based on items in the collection.
One of the dresses is a really unusual Victorian wedding dress (showing that wedding dresses were not all white).
Our dress-up version has cheats so that it can be easily fastened to be worn over the top of ordinary clothing (rather than a corset!). It still needs the blue braid and fringing adding to it, but we thought you might like to see the work in progress.
