The History Museum of Mobile is already looking forward to 2023. The museum announced its next major exhibition will feature the clothing from the beloved TV series “Downton Abbey.” Coming after the first of the year -- “Dressing the Abbey” -- will feature 35 award-winning costumes featured in the TV series, which ran for six seasons and followed up with two blockbuster films.
Downton Abbey™The exhibition features thirty-five costumes worn by men and women, inviting viewers to discover the turbulence of the Edwardian era and the cultural impact of the First World War. From rich country tweeds, to sumptuous evening gowns, to a starched footman’s livery, the textiles in this exhibition speak to a transformational moment in art, fashion, design, and history.
A series of programs will enrich the visitor experience and enhance the educational value of the exhibition. From engaging local artists and designers in lectures, to exploring the performative rituals around drinking tea, to designing creative tablescapes for one’s own home, to teaching ballroom dancing, the planned programming is designed to allow for meaningful connections to both the exhibition themes and to the local community.were produced by the London costume house of Cosprop Ltd.
