I present ‘Historical Fashions Shows’, Lectures/Talks and Costume Displays. We are located in Cramlington just north of Newcastle upon Tyne. At ‘Julia Renaissance Costumes’ I create fabulous Historical Costumes with masks, headdresses, jewellery and underwear. We are located in Cramlington near Newcastle-upon-Tyne. I present Fashion Shows, Talks and Displays. We have presented events for English Heritage, The Royal Armouries and Edinburgh Festivals. Tudor Costume Talk/Lecture - a very interesting, lively and informative talk about the design/construction and inspiration for my historical gowns, as well as a brief history of the people who wore them. Integral to the event is a display of four costumes on mannequins with headdresses, fans, underwear and jewellery as well as a personal appearance by King Henry VIII. Costumes for Elizabeth I, Mary Queen of Scots and Anne Boleyn are included. Enter the World of Jane Austen – Regency Costume - A very interesting, lively, humorous and informative lecture by Julia Soares-McCormick about the design and construction of gowns worn during the Regency period. Beautifully costumed mannequins will accompany the talk. Included are an ornate gold-encrusted court gown inspired by clothes worn by Empress Josephine, wife of Napoleon Bonaparte – A very pretty white cotton afternoon dress fit for Jane Austen worn with bonnet, chemisette and spencer. Also included is a sumptuous lilac silk ballgown embellished with gold and lilac guipure lace - it is worn with a turban, fan and gloves - a stunning outfit fit for the Netherfield Ball! Underwear and accessories worn during this period will also be included. Period Fashion Shows - My exciting show includes a number of superb costumes I have designed worn by four models. They are accompanied by beautiful period music, a brief history of each historical figure and a talk about the design and construction of each costume. Our show includes Mary Queen of Scots taking off her velvet robes to reveal her elegant execution gown. The Show provides a glamorous and different entertainment for Stately homes and in fact any type of special event. Costume Displays - We present a stunning display of black mannequins beautifully attired in my reproduction clothing complete with all accessories including headdresses, fans and masks. A descriptor of each costume is included. - See more at: http://www.tudortalkandcatwalk.com/about-julia-renaissance-costumes/ .hF7Lwrq6.dpuf
