Open to the public by appointment only, the Collection contains gowns, jackets, and other articles of clothing from the 1870s through the 1990s. Every item in the collection was donated by Philadelphians. When a tour is scheduled, the pieces are pulled from their climate controlled area and acid-proof boxes, put onto mannequins, and stuffed into a room smaller than Phillyist's own living room.
