Probably the world's best museum of its kind, it deals with British fashion history from the 17th century to the present. Life-sized mannequins wear underwear, jewelry, babies' clothes, ceremonial and bridal dresses, gowns and men's suits of silk and velvet. Royal Crescent Number One should also be seen.

Beautiful gardens are nearby.
They last two hours and visits are to all the major points of historic and architectural interest. Your guide will point out former homes or temporary abodes of Jane Austen, Admiral Nelson, Dr. Livingston, Gainsborough, and Dickens. I don't think it's necessary to take a motorcoach tour of Bath, of which several leave throughout the day from the Terrace Walk. All rights reserved.
