Fashion History Museum is a museum in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada, which chronicles the history of fashion. It was founded in 2004[1] by Jonathan Walford and Kenn Norman.[2] The museum is a non-profit charitable organization.[3]

History

Founders

Prior to founding the Fashion History Museum, Jonathan Walford had been the founding curator of the Bata Shoe Museum.[2][3] Walford has been collecting historical fashions since the 1970s, finding pieces from auction houses, garage sales, and even rescuing some items from the trash.[2] He has also written several books on fashion.[4]

Walford is currently the museum's Director/Curator. The museum's other founder, Kenn Norman, who serves as the Chair of the museum's board, has a background in finance, project management and design.[3][4]

Southworks Gallery

For the first ten years of its existence the museum lacked a permanent gallery, so it created exhibitions that travelled around Canada and the world, from Hong Kong to Bahrain.[10] A pilot gallery in a mall [4] in Cambridge Ontario, in 2013 saw almost 8000 visitors in the four and a half months the museum was open there.[5]

Hespeler Post Office

In June 2015 the museum opened in a 3,000 square foot decommissioned post-office that had been opened in 1929[6] in the former town of Hespeler, now a neighbourhood of Cambridge.[3][3] The museum retained and restored the original terrazzo floors and installed replicas of antique light fixtures for lighting.[6] A restoration project for the clock over the museum's front doors was funded by the public.[7] The town of Cambridge was once a textile manufacturing hub, making the museum a suitable fit with the town's history.[8]

Collection

The museum's collection encompasses over 10,000 items.[3] These items range from what may be the oldest existing European shoe worn in North America (it was reputedly worn in New Amsterdam and dates to about 1660),[2] to dresses by Hollywood designer Adrian (Adolph Greenberg)[3] to 1970s handbags made from cigarette packs.[9]

Exhibitions

Before establishing the current gallery space, the museum created travelling exhibitions and pop-up shows.
