We'll share the story of fashion in Connecticut with everything from wedding dresses to corsets, but we'll also explore how women worked to secure their health, freedom, and political participation, a story that shouldn't be eclipsed by what they wore. Visit storage and collection areas not normally open to the public, and learn how the CMCH preserves the stories of Connecticut.
