Resource Collection...


Since its inception Costume and Textile Association has acquired its own independent collection of costume, accessories and textiles.  Much of the collection has been donated by members and friends passing on favourite but no longer wanted pieces from their own wardrobes. This resource collection is made available for the association's exhibitions, workshops and vintage fashion shows to raise funds and aid research. On the following pages members can view some of the collection.
 
PLEASE NOTE: This is not the same as the collection of more than 32,000 items British clothing, accessories, needlecrafts and home furnishings dating from the 18th century to the present day held by the Costume and Textile department of the Norfolk Museums Service:
