Notty shows off some Edwardian styles
A range of authentic Edwardian costume was paraded before a fascinated audience at the June meeting of the North Notts Creative Textiles Group in Retford.
Fine silk dresses with intricate lace and beading brought to life the era as seen in the Downton television series.
Exquisite shoes and flowery hats completed the picture, expertly presented and explained by their owner, Notty Hornblower.
