Hi Dawn,
If you only want to go into 1 part of London, i definately would choose V&A.
There is so much to see here, that you will have to forse yourself to
deside. And it is near the big ware houses. Berwick street is not that far
away, here you could go looking for nice silk fabrics.
But i am not sure of they have made the costume exhibition again. Last i was
there, it was removed and only few items was exhibited in the big time
period exhibitions.

Subject: [h-cost] Suggestions for London
I'm looking into squeezing in a day in London on our holiday next spring,
and was wondering what's the best place to go spend half a day looking at
costume and clothing related items? I'll probably only really have time to
spend at one location, so I want to make it a good one, unless there are
two quite close to each other. Tower of London? V&A? Portrait Gallery? Any
suggestions?
I'm also looking for a budget-oriented place to sleep, as the flight I am
planning arrives at Midnight local time and we'll be knackered. Someplace
quiet, clean and comfortable is all we need. We won't be in it long enough
to want much more than a bed and plumbing.
Dawn
