Activewear for the Gentry
Clip | 6m 6sVideo has Closed Captions
Nancy learns about the riding and hunting costumes of the gentry from Downton Abbey.
Activewear had a totally different meaning in the 1920's, especially if you were an aristocrat living in Highclere Castle, a fantastical country estate, in Public TV’s Downton Abbey®. Nancy takes you on tour at the Paine Art Center, Oshkosh, WI, where the Dressing Downton exhibit is currently on display, to highlight the riding, hunting, and farming costumes of the gentry.
