42: Preview – Downtown Abbey Visit

12 years ago

Laurel H

I visited the Downton Abbey fashion exhibit at Winterthur in 2014. It was a MUST SEE exhibit. Here are a couple of pictures.

Some of the trim on this dress is shown below.

This picture is a close up of the dress’s trim.

The work on the clothing is truly amazing. Some of it has been hijacked from period clothing.

The book to buy if you want to learn more about the fashions seen in the show is Behind the Scenes at Downton Abby, by Emma Rowley.
