NOW OPEN! The exhibition will include women’s fashions from 1870-1900, showcasing elaborate construction, lavish fabrics, color, and trimmings.

Mark Twain’s moniker for this era, “The Gilded Age,” is typified by excess. The upper classes of society gained significant wealth, and rapidly changing cultural norms were beginning, bringing about drastic changes in clothing styles. 

The exhibit will feature period clothing such as gowns, outerwear, accessories, and more from Cohasset Historical Society’s Costume and Textile Collection.
