| Louise Herrick's 1928 high school graduation dress. |
Our Downton Abbey in America version 2 exhibit opened this month. The exhibit features Downton Abbey quality dresses of the 1920's all from the collection of the Warren County History Center. The graduation dress in the above picture is made of silk satin with silk satin roses decorating the skirt and the left shoulder. This dress reminds us very much of the dress Lady Rose wore to be presented to the King and Queen of England. Lady Rose's dress had the same drop waist with a gathered skirt, although her dress was floor length.
