Things to see
Open the door on fashion and society through the ages.
Whether you are interested in exploring the house and learning
about costume or having a picnic on the lawn, there's plenty to see
and do at this splendid country house museum, set in beautiful
wooded grounds.
The National Museum of Costume presents a fascinating look at
fashion and social etiquette from the 1850s to the 1950s. The
exhibition rooms are set out to show the kind of social functions
that clothes in the collection were used for within a country house
setting. Each room reflects a different period and event. Take a
peek into a few of the rooms here, to see what's on offer.
