The exhibition Revolutionary Fashion 1790-1820 opened at Fairfax House on 26 August 2011 and runs until 31 December 2011. Following on from our acclaimed Dress to Impress exhibition of 2010, which focused on changing fashions during the period 1730-1780, this second exploration of Georgian Fashion takes the story from the revolutionary 1790s to the rakish Regency period. This gallery contains images from the exhibition, showing displays throughout the rooms of the house and in the dedicated exhibition space.
