Bonnets, Crinolines and Mourning: what we learn from the clothes in Charlotte M Yonge
21 November, 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm GMT
The Charlotte M Yonge Fellowship Autumn Meeting will take place on Saturday 21st November 2026 at 3.00 pm. The Fellowship is delighted to welcome the speaker, Moira Redmond, long-standing blogger and writer on clothes.
Moira’s blog, Clothes in Books, combines, in her own words, “impeccable research and epic frivolity”. She has also taken part in literary festivals, given talks to other literary societies, and writes for the i newspaper.
