The Fashion Museum, located in Bath's grand Assembly Rooms, is a world-class collection of contemporary and historical dress that is second to none. The Fashion Museum came to Bath as the Museum of Costume in 1963, and was the brainchild of Doris Langley Moore, an inspired collector, writer, scholar and costume designer who was passionate about fashions of the past. This souvenir book showcases treasures in the collection, from the beautiful embroidered pieces of the 17th century to the show - stopping ensembles from the world's most famous fashion designers at the beginning of the 21st century. Beautifully designed and with an expert commentary, it celebrates the beauty of the design and the exquisite craftsmanship of the work.
