    This quirky museum houses costumes, accessories and other artefacts once owned by some of the most stylish celebrities in the world.

    It all began with Givenchy’s “little black dress” worn by Audrey Hepburn in Charade (1963). This was the first of many classic outfits acquired by Newbridge Silverware for its Museum of Style Icons, now recognised as one of the world’s most impressive collections of fashion and cinema memorabilia.

    If you’d like to see the Beatles’ suits from their A Hard Day’s Night tour; Judy Garland’s satin wedding dress from the movie The Pirate (1948); letters written between Audrey Hepburn and her father who lived his later life on the island of Ireland; or original photographs of a young Marilyn Monroe captured by Hungarian photographer André de Dienes, this is the place for you. Admission to the self-guided tour is free so come and learn about these fabulous style icons and the important role of the costume designers, photographers and seamstresses who made their looks truly timeless.
