Contest: the way we wear fair-Williamstown

What: The way we wear fair and "dressed for the Voyage" Titanic costume exhibition.
At: Saturday, July 23 (10 am-5 pm) and Sunday 24 July (10 am-4 pm)
Where: Williamstown Town Hall, Williamstown
Cost: $ 12 adult, $ 6 child, $ 30 family
Pre-bookings to get at 9 am Saturday: Hobson's Bay Tickets.

Again, the way we wear Fair happen in the Williamstown Town Hall – from the website:
Racks filled with fantastic fashion spread over more than two hundred years. Boxes full of photos of fashionably dressed men and women. Shelves bursting with bright, starched French and Irish linen. Polished wooden cabinets filled with glittering jewels. Exotic textiles from countries far beyond Australia coast draped over tables ...This is what awaits you on the way we wear fairs.

TWWWF has always been about an exhibition of costume, and this time on the occasion of the hundredth anniversary of the launch of the Titanic, costumes and accessories from 1910 to 1912 will be displayed. Fans of "Downton Abbey" will be sure to recognize the late Edwardian styles. It is a personal favorite of mine (although I tend to love each era, they all have something good to share).

More information available on the website. You can use photos of the Titanic exhibition see here.


1950s Haute Couture, not relevant to Titanic exhibition but too good not to share.

And the contest? I have two double passes to win-if you be in Melbourne on the date in question and would like to, please let me a comment on this post about who is your favorite Downton Abbey character and why-if you have that pleasure, you could always get creative. Good luck! Entries close July 14, and then I'll post the winners.
