Packing away displays at the Assembly Rooms

#FashionMuseum #FashionOurFuture

Over the past month, we have been busy carefully packing away all the objects on display at the Fashion Museum ready for our move from the Assembly Rooms. In this display case, you can see the Curatorial Team at work packing some of the earliest treasures in the Fashion Museum collection including a beautiful cream figured silk gown from the 1770s; a rather handsome cream wool frock coat from the 1790s; a cream and orange printed dress from about 1800; and a very sweet child’s pelisse from 1810. All the objects in the collection are now safely packed and ready for the next exciting chapter of the Fashion Museum!

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.
