Australian Made:100 Years of #Fashion #NGV #facebook #allfrockedup #geekgirl

Australian Made:100 Years of Fashion tells the story of our unique style from the 1850s to 1950s.
 
To celebrate this fascinating exhibition and to pay homage to the stylish grannies, aunts, mothers and fathers who blazed the Australian fashion trail, we’re asking Facebook fans to show off their favourite fashion items, inherited from a stylish relative.
 
From Aunty Fay’s fifties frock, to Pop’s panama hat, send us pics of your family’s most treasured hand-me-downs and you could win a NGV Shop voucher!
