It's fascinating to see how much work goes into preserving and repairing these beautiful artefacts.

I watch a YouTube channel called Prior Attire and it's so interesting to see all the elements that go into creating the fashions of so many different historical periods.

I could sit all day and watch those videos. It's amazing the conservation methods that are used on the fabrics and pieces. That gown will be beautiful when it's fully restored.
