Mill Green Mill & Museum

Cresta Couture Exhibition

Mill Green Mill & Museum is always worth a visit and this new exhibition for Spring makes it even more worthwhile. The Cresta Couture exhibition is presented in partnership with the University of Hertfordshire and it celebrates the innovative and stylish fabrics created by local Hertfordshire textile company Cresta Silks from the 1920s to the 1970s.

Original Cresta Couture items from the museum's collection will be displayed alongside contemporary pieces and designs created by Fashion and Fashion Business students at the University of Hertfordshire's School of Art and Design who have been inspired by the iconic designs.
