Chinese processional costume
The Princess costume, on loan for the Landmarks gallery, was worn at the Bendigo Easter Fair from the 1880s until 1987, when a new one was bought. In the following videos you can see it and other processional costumes being worn during preparations for the procession of 1978. The Princess costume can be seen in part 2, beginning at about 42 seconds.
