We’d love to see the museum through your eyes. Photography without flash is allowed in the museum so long as the images taken are for personal, non-commerical use.

The museum

The National Museum of Costume is part of National Museums Scotland, the country's national museum service. The museum showcases a century of style, set in a beautiful country house, where you can follow the story of fashion from the 1850s to the 1950s, explore life-like room settings and elegant clothes, and immerse yourself in the lifestyle of the wealthy.
