## Description

The Costume Society of Ontario (CSO) is an organization dedicated to the appreciation and study of fashion, costume, textiles, and material culture. Its activities connect members and the wider public with the history of clothing and its place in society, from historic garments to modern design. The Society organizes talks, workshops, tours, exhibitions, and social outings, often in partnership with museums and cultural institutions such as the Royal Ontario Museum. Programs have explored subjects including 20th-century fashion and furniture, Hollywood costume design, Mexican clothing and culture, and the work of influential textile scholars. CSO also highlights exhibitions and collections across Ontario, including historic fashions and garments worn by local residents, and participates in vintage and antique fairs to introduce more people to wearable and household history. Through its publications, archive, events, and membership, the organization supports learning, exchange, and public interest in costume and fashion history. Visitors can explore Society activities, museum exhibitions, event listings, and ways to join or support its work.
