I came across mention of this exhibit of Napoleonic era costumes: ‘NAPOLEON AND THE EMPIRE OF FASHION’ An exhibition with over fifty mannequins meticulously dressed in genuine costume, accessories and jewelry complemented by contemporary prints and objects from the period 1795-1815.
The exhibition website has a page for everyone to vote on where the exhibit goes next! Visit the site and vote for a city near you. It's looks beautiful in the photographs. http://napoleon-fashion.com/wordpress/ I hope New York wins......
