The Fashion Gallery, Snibston Discovery MuseumSaturday 20 April 2013, 10.30 - 16.00
Marking the 70th anniversary of the Board of Trade Collection, this exhibition at the Snibston Discovery Museum features over 100 garments from the museum's collections and loans from other museums and private collections. The exhibition also includes concept fashion created by the fashion students of De Montfort University, who have used the museum's collection of utility and other wartime fashion as the inspiration for their work. The study day will include four speakers who will explore different aspects of wartime fashion and the wider utility scheme, viewing time for the exhibition, and the opportunity to study further items from the museum's colection and Janet Godfrey's collection.
