Description
The National Trust looks after more than 40,000 items of dress - from attire of extraordinary luxury to practical, everyday working clothes. This beautifully illustrated book features a selection of 100 important examples charting over 500 years of changing tastes and fashions. 100 Things to Wear is the first book to explore the breadth and depth of the National Trust's dress collection, from attire of extraordinary luxury to everyday items worn by those who lived and worked in the Trust's historic houses. Held at properties across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, the collection showcases a wealth of lived experiences from the opulence of the Tudors to the Windrush generation.

Accessibly written and illustrated with a wealth of new photography, 100 Things to Wear will appeal to everyone from fashionistas, researchers, designers and other industry professionals to all those with an interest in clothing and dress.

The book concludes with an illustrated glossary of terms relating to historic clothing and its production and a gazetteer of Trust properties with significant dress collections.
