We are happy to announce that on October 24, 2015, we will be giving a presentation on fashion as worn in the American West from 1870 to 1900 entitled: “The Victorian West: How The West Was Worn” at the Magnificent Seven (M7) Convention. The convention is scheduled for the weekend of October 24-25, 2015 and will feature various presentations and displays concerning the American West both in film and as it really was.

The focus of our presentation will be on Victorian fashion in the American West, both real and as depicted in film. We hope to give a broad overview and provide some interesting contrasts for people’s consideration. We had the pleasure of giving a presentation at M7 back in 2013 and we are really looking forward to returning. Come check us out- we look forward to seeing you out there!
