New Year, New Exhibition at Bath Fashion Museum

Visitors to the Bath Fashion Museum can glimpse a dramatic transformation taking place later this month.

As the Museum’s highly popular “Fifty Fabulous Frocks” exhibition drew to a close on Wednesday 1 January, preparations will get underway for the next big show: “GEORGIANS: 18th century dress for polite society”, opening Saturday 25 January 2014.

Other display galleries will remain open and everyone can take in the following Fashion Museum exhibits at no extra charge on the Assembly Rooms ticket:

• Dress of the Year Displays – up to the minute fashion from top name designers
• 20^th Century Fashions – day and evening wear from the 1920s through to the present day
• Menswear Displays – a selection of Georgian, late Victorian and modern menswear
• 19^th Century Displays – fashionable dress throughout the 1800s on display in our Behind the Scenes Gallery
• 17^th Century Embroidered Gloves – possibly the finest array of these rare and luxury treasures of the world
• Dress Up Like a Victorian – replica dress for adults and children to try on, including lace up corsets.

The Fashion Museum is open daily from 10.30am to 4pm (exit 5pm). For more information visit www.fashionmuseum.co.uk or call 01225 477789.
