Timothy Long is Curator of Fashion & Decorative Arts at the Museum of London.
In this lecture, Tim will review the history of British men’s fashion, touching upon the sensibilities of famous Londoners—such as King George’s friend Beau Brummell—and the development of the three-piece suit as a symbol for power and influence. Tim will also trace the sartorial traditions of Britain’s most iconic literary and cinematic personalities from the 18th to the 21st century. Drinks and refreshments will be provided.
