About this Event
An exclusive opportunity to join dress historian, Rebecca Olds, and discover the techniques she used to make an 18th century dress.
Rebecca Olds is a freelance dress and textile historian. She advocates ‘learning through reconstruction’ as a window through which the lived experiences of people in the past can be understood and museum visitors can tangibly engage with the past. Rebecca is currently researching women’s clothing in eighteenth-century Scotland.
