The National Motor Museum Trust

Wide brimmed hats, long gloves and full length skirts were not only stylish but also functional, providing relief from heat, dust, rain and cold.

Long fur-lined woollen overcoats were popular winter travelling outfits for young boys to protect against the cold.

Ruffled coats were very fashionable Edwardian motoring dress. They protected against cold and dust and were loose fitting to cover wide skirts.

Caps, leather gauntlets and boots were essential driving accessories for keeping out wind and rain in open-topped vehicles.
