If you’ve ever had to doll yourself up for a fancy dress party in the capital, then the chances are you’re familiar with London’s top theatrical costume shop, Angels, who have been providing the public with costumes since 1840.
Now, after nearly 200 years of trading, Angels are offering tours around their most secret and exciting warehouses, allowing you to ‘ooh’ and ‘ahh’ your way through over six million costumes.
It’s a fascinating afternoon for anyone interested in fashion, film, theatre and even history – after all, these costumes are up to five generation old, and when was the last time you were able to get your mitts on a genuine 19th Century frock?
