It has already visited many major communities in the province, and has helped raise thousands of dollars for local Cent- ennial celebrations. In addition to the contribution it has made to Centennial fund-raising, it has helped stimulate. interest in preparing for the 100th birthday of Con- federation. Costumes in Portraits from the Past were designed after extensive research in old books, magazines and historical documents, but are made of modern fabrics using modern dressmaking techniques. This has enabled the costumes to stand up to repeated use and display even though some of the originals from which they were taken, such as Queen Victoria's wedding dress, were intended to be worn only once. Some of the garments were designed for wear on formal occasions while others are modelled after the daily garb worn by pioneer women and Indian maids. | The show includes an example of the Paris styles worn by Helene de Champlain, the child-bride of the famous French explorer; a Victorian riding gar- ment, costumes illustrating the dress of the wives of the provincial premiers at Confederation time, and many more. In the commentary, some interesting and little- known historical facts about Canada's early women are contained. These facts help bring authenticity to the glamour and colour of the costumes.
