Kearny History Museum
For general information about why I am undertaking this project, please read this post [Saving Fragments of History--How I Became the Curator of my Town Museum's Fashion Display] to understand what sort of condition these dresses were displayed in. You can read a discussion of the dress forms I will be using here and a how-to of how I manipulate both dress forms and mannequins here. Below are posts describing each of the garments I have tackled in this project thus far.
