“Bloomers, Bonnets, and Bustles", an exhibit of antique clothing, will be on display once again this Sunday, August 28, 1-4:00pm during the open house at the Colonel Paul Wentworth House in Rollinsford.
The exhibit will feature clothing worn by members of the Abbott/Goodwin family of Massachusetts from the 1820s through the 1920s. On loan from Jean Demetracopoulos of South Berwick, the extensive collection includes a silk wedding gown, many other complete garments of silk and lace, petticoats, bodices, baby gowns, children’s dresses, shirtwaists, a set of early stays, bonnets, parasols, and yes, bloomers.
Admission is by donation, and memberships in ARCH are strongly encouraged and appreciated.
