Hollywood at the V&A

 Friday headed into town to the V&A to attend the preview day of the Hollywood Costume exhibition with my Aunt. WOW ... an amazing one. It took us 3.5 hrs to walk the four halls. We loved watching the interviews, looking at the costumes and remembering the films.

 

We were both interested to see how badly damaged Charlie Chaplin's clothing are.

But the star was Judy's whole costume from "The Wizard of OZ" ... OH my !!!

These are reproductions but they did have the originals in a box ...

At the end , other than needing a sit down and drink, we both agreed they should have had cinema set up as we were both ready to watch a film or three..

Two down , ten new designs to stitch. Although sixteen altogether planned !
