We’ve turned our stunning collection of historical fashion prints into digital jigsaw puzzles to help you through lockdown!
The Sovereign Hill Museums Association’s collection features over 3,000 original historical fashion pieces, including these fashion prints from some of Europe’s most prestigious lifestyle publications.
These prints have been acquired by the museum to recreate the fashion which would’ve been worn by middle- to upper-class women on the goldfields. This material is used by our costume department and historians to research, design and produce garments worn by our costumed intepreters.
