Discover a history of fashion from the 1600s to the present day at Fashion Museum Bath. Manager Rosemary Harden introduces some of the Museum's 100 star objects from its headline exhibition A History of Fashion in 100 Objects.

Fashion Museum Bath has temporarily closed before moving to a new location in the centre of Bath. While the collection is in temporary accommodation you will still be able to access it online, where we will create an exciting programme of digital content, and loans to other museums.
