Elizabethan Costume Demonstration
Step back in time and into the shoes – literally – of different people from Shakespeare’s world at one of our Elizabethan Costume Demonstrations and discover some of the fashions (and fashion faux pas) of the 16th Century.
Why were Elizabethans always on the edge of their seats?
What did we do in a world before Velcro?
What does ‘make a leg’ and ‘doff your hat’ really mean?
From party attire and work clothes, to the Early Modern equivalent of loungewear, learn about how different people dressed for different occasions 400 years ago. You’ll even get the chance to try some on yourself!
