To complement our fall exhibit on Homespun Arts,  Sparta Historical Society welcomes Lydia Chiappini, historical clothing professor.  Her program demystifies the fashionable Victorian silhouette and the function of undergarments in achieving it.  Beginning with an earlier Victorian ensemble and ending with a later Victorian one through the removal and addition of clothing layers, this program utilizes all period correct dress of her design.   Lunch precedes program.
