Friday Fashion


Victorian Fashions are the focus of the Avery House exhibits until September of next year. The current display (which ends November 21) is "Inside Out: The Art of Victorian Garment Construction." Beginning November 27, the exhibit will be "East Meets West: The Striffler Family Collection," featuring garments recently donated to the Poudre Landmarks Foundation by Fort Collins resident Carlota Striffler. The Avery House is open from 1-4 on Saturdays and Sundays. For a look at more vintage fashions, including the picture at left of Mattie Russ and Myrtle Freeman (circa 1900), visit the online fashion archive of the Fort Collins History Connection.



Just a reminder about the Fort Collins Stories Giveaway. Send in your Fort Collins story for a chance to win.

Happy Friday! Have a great weekend.

Jenny, something's wrong with the linking on today's (17th) post. The Twitter link took me to an almost blank page and I had to click on Home to get to the post. Each time I tried to leave a comment, I ended up back at that almost blank page. It's wacky, since things work fine at this older post.
