Elizabethan dress has played a critical part in the history of Shakespeare in performance. Since the turn of the 17th century, Elizabethan aesthetics have been used and adapted to communicate particular ideas to audiences. The V&A’s Fashion and Theatre & Performance collections provide an extensive insight into how this approach to design for Shakespeare has evolved over time. Join PhD researcher Ella Hawkins as she traces these strands of development through the Museum’s galleries.
