VIDEO: 1940s fashion show at Sutton Library
A taste of the war-time years came to Sutton Library at the weekend with a stunning 1940s fashion show that brought back fond memories of the stylish era.
A selection of vintage dresses were paraded through the library at the event which was well attended by members of the public, some of whom had even come dressed in their own 1940s costumes.
The beautiful clothes on display were on loan from the Hope House Costume Museum in Derbyshire having been collected by its owner and vintage clothes enthusiast Notty Hornblower.
They featured authentic wedding dresses, ball gowns and day dresses which have been bought or donated to the museum over the years.
