THE MANIFESTO IS MUTATING!  IT IS TURNING INTO A WIKI THAT CAN BECOME THE HIVE MIND OF ALL COSTUMERS, FINALLY LIVING UP TO IT'S SLOGAN: "COSTUMERS OF THE WORLD, UNITE!" YOU CAN HELP IN THIS PROCESS BY MOVING PAGES TO THE NEW SITE AT THECOSTUMERSMANIFESTO.COM, HELPING TO EDIT THE PAGES THAT ARE THERE ALREADY, AND ADDING YOUR OWN ORIGINAL INPUT.

Day 7: The British Museum

Sorry but the British Museum, while still allowing photos to be taken in it's galleries now states that those photos may not be put on the web, so I have removed my photos of the objects in their collections.

The British Museum in the morning, then   walk through the historic shopping districts: see Liberty of London (original home of 19th Century Aesthetic dress & Morris fabrics), Burlington Arcade (sells historical jewelry in it’s 19th Century building), and eat an inexpensive lunch at Fortnum & Mason’s, where the grocery clerks still wear full Edwardian Morning dress suits.  In the afternoon see the The Royal Ceremonial Dress Collection at Kensington Palace . Evening at the theatre seeing Chicago.

Go on to Day 8
