Join an exclusive member's only 'behind-the-seams' Curators tour of the new Fashionable Silhouettes exhibition at Old Government House, Parramatta.

Explore Old Government House’s new exhibition, Fashionable Silhouettes, a celebration of statement sleeves and striking skirts, and the undergarments and accessories that helped to create them.

The exhibition 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.

Your ticket includes an exclusive guided tour of the display and 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.

This is a special event for current members of the National Trust. Please bring along your membership card on the day.

Spaces are limited; bookings essential.
