Episode 24: Corset Dolls, Beetle Gowns, and the Mean Old Witch of Ruswarp - a podcast by Melissa and Poppy

In this week's episode, curators Melissa and Poppy ransack museum wardrobes for weird and wonderful items of clothing! We'll be learning about an incredible costume made from naturally-shed beetle wings, the 'terrible' knitters of Dent,  and how one resourceful mother turned an old corset into a child's plaything.
