Join Jillian of Feather and Flask and Adrian Teal on a journey behind the curtains to the eighteenth century stage, where you will then craft a fascinator fit for any grand theatre entrance of your own!
Acclaimed caricaturist and author of the scurrilous Gin Lane Gazette, Adrian Teal, will regale you with salacious and intriguing tales of the gorgeous Georgians, as he introduces you to some of the people who created a stir both on and off stage.
The eighteenth century saw an explosion of interest in fashion, with many ladies of the beau monde going to extraordinary lengths to outdo each other. Adrian will enchant you with anecdotes of the society beauties and actresses who created sartorial trends of their own, and of the most outrageous fashion statements of the era.
After your head has been filled with with these tantalising tales and your imagination has piqued you will then turn to the tables which are filled to the brim with materials and adornments. Jillian of Feather and Flask will instruct you in fascinator making techniques so you can make a fascinator of your very own using such things as silk, flowers, ribbon and feathers and more.
Following such creativity, we will then partake in a well-earned gin and tonic to continue the entertainment in true eighteenth-century style
