Talks

Meridith Towne has a range of lively, informative talks celebrating women’s history through fashion. Every one comes with a display of original costume and accessories. Popular with groups and venues across the country, they are a great addition to your group meeting, fundraiser and event calendars. Each presentation is £375, plus travel expenses from Malton, North Yorkshire. Meridith Towne also offers a range of options for bespoke handling sessions, schools workshops and commissioned presentations tailored to a specific theme.

I will be keeping the option of virtual talks open for 2025 with the option of ‘Meet the Maker: life as a historical costumier’. An interactive talk in a virtual setting with a 30-40min talk and then questions from the audience. You can ask anything about the job I do making historical costumes for museums through to all aspects of dress and womens social history. Groups members can send in their questions beforehand so I can prepare examples and display items to show on screen.  Warning: I once did this when a group’s speaker failed to show and I jumped at the last minute and the talk lasted nearly two hours! This talk is at the reduced cost of £150 each with no travel expenses (obviously!) Other virtual options may be possible on request.
