Webb, Iain R [Curator] (2012) Stephen Jones : from Georgiana to Boy Boy George. .

Abstract

An exhibition at The Holburne Museum, Bath. The exhibit featured a selection of hats designed by internationally acclaimed milliner Stephen Jones that reference the The Georgian era, which is a period he returns to again and again, especially the Regency. Jones is entranced by the elegance of neo-classical architecture, the romantic poets, fluttering plumes, bonnets and turbans. The hats were shown on early 20th Century wax mannequins by Pierre Imans loaned from the collection of Fashion Museum, Bath. The mannequins were displayed among artefacts from The Holburne Museum collection on an original Regency dining table setting - information labels embroidered on antique table linen.
