SUMMARY:Book Launch: The  Dressmakers  of Auschwitz
DESCRIPTION:At the height of the Holocaust twenty-five young Jewish inmates of Auschwitz-Birkenau were selected to create beautiful fashions for elite Nazi women in a dedicated salon established by the camp commandant’s wife. Historian Lucy Adlington has researched their lives and fates to write a powerful chronicle – The Dressmakers of Auschwitz. This virtual presentation\, drawn from eyewitness interviews and original garments from the era\, is a remarkable tale of resilience\, camaraderie and dressmaking in the most extreme circumstances. \nLucy Adlington is a British dress historian with more than twenty years’ experience researching social history. Adlington runs History Wardrobe\, a company which presents costume-in-context talks across the UK. Her non-fiction publications include: Women’s Lives and Clothes in WWII: Ready for Action and Stitches in Time – the Story of the Clothes we Wear. Lucy Adlington lives on a farm in Yorkshire.
