Fashion Show, Straight-Laced and Buttoned-Up: Dress and Undress at the Turn of the 20th Century
Altadena Country Club
Altadena, CA
Enjoy afternoon tea and a period fashion show covering six decades, 1880-1930, with a special focus on the undergarments worn to achieve the highly stylized fashions of the day. Live female and male models (both in full dress and undergarments) and period musical entertainment will take you back to the days of corsets and crinolines, garters and spats, bustles and bowlers.
This special program is presented by Pasadena Museum of History to further explore the social and cultural worlds of Victorian/Edwardian-era Pasadena as featured in our current exhibition, Pasadena Patron: The Life and Legacy of Eva Scott Fenyes.
