A Cavalcade of History and Fashion

Journey back to the era of big hair, bold colours and unforgettable fashion statements.

Explore an era that revolutionised style with a visual feast of should pads and neon hues.

Celebrate the eclectic mix of glamour and eccentricity that made the 80s a truly unforgettable period in fashion history.

Join us for a nostalgic trip down memory lane as we pay homage to the era where fashion truly knew no bounds.

Afternoon tea included.

A Cavalcade presentation is a themed talk and includes examples from the collection with commentary. Items are carried amongst the audience, allowing a closer look at peices from the collection. The Cavalcade of History and Fashion is a collection of original historic gowns and accessories with provenance, dating from the 1700s preserving Australia's social and fashion history.
