Costume Bureau preserves local period costumes in Trumansburg
The Ulysses Philomathic Library affiliated Costume Bureau began in 1935 to provide period costumes for local plays. Founder Lydia Sears notes the collection grew after donations from families and Ithaca residents, was moved to the library in 1953, and now loans rather than rents, with items used in fashion shows, plays, and pageants. The collection includes 1872 wedding dress, flapper outfits, hats, shoes, and accessories, and will be showcased in the Baldwin Building Centennial exhibit.
