Fashion touches everyone’s life – it is intrinsically linked to society – and A History of Fashion in 100 Objects will reference moments in history, as well as more personal stories. Graceful silk robes and embroidered and tailored coats for men, the styles fashionable during Bath’s Georgian heyday will be on display, along with Regency fashion from the time of Jane Austen and dresses by the big names of fashion history, including the House of Worth and Christian Dior.

A History of Fashion in 100 Objects will also include ten shoe ‘moments’ throughout history, from Georgian silk shoes to trainers as well as a children’s trail featuring ten ‘historical fashion’ looks for kids, from the 1700s to the 2000s.
