Outlander: Costumes Woven in Time
📅March 6 – May 18, 2026
🕞10 AM – 5 PM
📍American Revolution Museum at Yorktown
Created in collaboration with Sony Pictures Television, the special exhibition Outlander: Costumes Woven in Time invites guests to go behind the scenes of the hit television series Outlander for a closer look at the artistry and storytelling behind its unforgettable costumes.
Featuring an exclusive collection of 26 hand-selected garments from Seasons 1–4, the exhibition explores the show’s origins through the acclaimed costume designs of Terry Dresbach. Visitors can journey across continents and centuries through clothing that reflects postwar 1940s Scotland, the upheaval of the 18th-century Highlands, the elegance of Paris, the voyage to early America, and the cultural shifts of the 1960s.
From the dramatic 18th-century wedding attire worn by Jamie Fraser and Claire Fraser, to Claire’s iconic red dress from the Versailles storyline and Brianna Randall Fraser’s time-traveling wardrobe, the exhibition highlights how clothing helps tell powerful stories about identity, class, culture, and craftsmanship. It also showcases the remarkable work of museum tailors who carefully dress living-history interpreters at the American Revolution Museum at Yorktown, bringing early American history to life.
Paid museum admission is required in addition to a special exhibition ticket. For more information, see here.
