Costume Walkabout at the Del Mar Antiques & Collectibles Show

Fanciful costumed individuals and groups can be seen wandering the halls of every Costume Walkabout sponsored by Calendar Shows, the Producer of the Del Mar Antiques & Collectibles Show in various historical, fictional and fantasy costume attire.

Mari Lewis is the creator and coordinator of the Costume Walkabout. These family-friendly, costume walkabouts are open to all ages and timezones.  If you would like more information or are interested in being a Costumed Walker in this upcoming Costume Walkabout, please email Lady Mari at info@costumewalkabout.com or visit the website www.costumewalkabout.com.

FREE ADMISSION to the show is still open to any and all who arrive in costume.  There is still the mandatory $9 parking fee imposed by the Fairgrounds.  But you will have the usual TONS OF FUN that has become the mainstream of this walkabout.

GASLIGHT GATHERING will be represented at this show, as well as their charity FREEDOM DOGS holding their "coat check" service.

TITANIC BON VOYAGE!
 

The RMS Titanic set off on its first and last voyage on April 10, 1912. She hit an iceberg four days into the crossing at 11:40 pm on April 14, 1912, and sank at 2:20 am on the morning of April 15, 1912.

1912 is the year of the Edwardian Period (named after King Edward who reigned from 1902-1910). The style of dress was transitioning out of the Victorian Period (Queen Victorian died 1901), and living was still innocent and technology abounded (as this was before the First World War [1914-1919]). 

Come walk with us at the Del Mar Antiques Show and commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the Maiden Voyage of the Titanic in the dress, professions, personalities and popular icons of the period!

Were you are lifeboat survivor? A relative of a Titanic passenger? A member of the band? Crew, Captain, or Service person?  A rescuer from another ship?  A famous inventor, doctor, politician or gangster of the day? Or maybe a 1912 vaudeville performer, musician, singer, dancer or Hollywood silent screen star?  So many costume moments!
