Fashioning or History exhibition is NOW CLOSED! 💔 . That's it! What an overwhelming experience.

We would like to thank everybody at #willesdengreenlibrary @brentmuseumandarchives our funders @lboc2020 and @mayorofldn - Along with the core team and programme participants for their hard work, dedication and support, without you there would be no Fashioning our History! .

BTS interview at @brentmuseumandarchives #willesdengreenlibrary with Garment Technologist @nicola1000000 and the face of the Fashioning our History installation @jaydeshenise @jayshencosmetics Nicola talks us through the development of this toile or prototype piece which demonstrates development work leading to our final installation piece. . By fitting @jaydeshenise , @nicola1000000 and the @foh.brent team were able to deduce that adjustments needed to be made to the Stomacher and side panels of the Mantua Overcoat for the final garment. . #brent2020 #brent #boroughofcultures #londonboroughofculture #mylocalculture #culture #arts #london #community #heritage #thisistheboroughofcultures #fashioningourhistory #fohbrent #history #fashionhistory #fashion #costume #community #historicalcostuming #edcuation #fashionillustration #brentlibraries #willesdengreenlibrary (at Willesden Green Library Centre) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN3A6cCAB_o/?igshid=p9qwnbcfa25i
