Hi. I'm Fashion Historian Amber Butchart and I'm here today at Eltham Palace which is cared for by English Heritage.
This place was once the childhood home of King Henry VIII.
I'm currently standing in the glorious medieval Great Hall underneath this hammer beam oak ceiling. But we're not recreating a medieval look today.
We're jumping forward in time to the 1930s when Stephen and Virginia Courtauld transformed this amazing palace into the art deco mansion we can see today.
Let's take a look inside.
I'm so in love with this place.
Today we're creating an authentic 1930s look that you can recreate at home.
We're going to find out what the style of the 1930s can reveal about what was going on in Britain at the time, as well as taking a closer look at the lives of the Courtaulds at Eltham Palace.
Let's get started.
Hello! This is incredible!
