Join a 'behind-the-seams' guided tour of the new Fashionable Silhouettes exhibition at Old Government House, Parramatta.

Explore this celebration of statement sleeves and striking skirts, and the undergarments and accessories that helped to create them.

Fashionable Silhouettes features some of the most dazzling silhouettes in the collection of the National Trust NSW, from a yellow silk gown first worn in the 1740s, through the bustle back era, leg-of-mutton sleeves and ‘New Look’ skirts to the mini dresses of the 1960s.

As well as the guided tour, your ticket includes access to Old Government House, so set aside some extra time to explore the property and have a picnic morning tea or lunch on the lawn.
