Mark Twain observed that, “Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society.” This lighthearted look at the wide variety of style, silhouettes and fads that kept the fashion-conscious on their toes in the 19th century illustrates that we do define ourselves through dress —and always have.

Phyllis Chapman, of Vintage Visitors, will join us for tea, after which she will present her program about fashion in the 19th century. Phyllis does extensive research on all her historical figures and programs. She also researches and creates the finely tailored costumes she wears for her presentations.
