Fashion and Folly - Tea and Talk with Jane Lewis

This tea and talk focuses on the alarming and bizarre things that people have done over the years to enhance their beauty and be regarded as fashionable. It may surprise you to know just how dangerous our ancestors' clothes and makeup were and the extraordinary lengths they were prepared to go to just be a la mode. Let this be a cautionary warning from history! Enjoy refreshments throughout the talk.
