Next week, just in time for the arrival of Pride month, Bankfield Museum in Halifax will open its doors to a world-exclusive exhibition of costumes from the drama.

The museum, which is close to Anne Lister’s historic home of Shibden Hall, will host a collection of over 30 iconic costumes created by Tom Pye, who served as costume designer on both seasons of Gentleman Jack.

The exhibition, which will be displayed in the magnificent surroundings of the museum’s Main Hall and Oak Gallery, features outfits and accessories worn by the cast in series two, including Suranne Jones (Anne Lister), Sophie Rundle (Ann Walker) and Gemma Whelan (Marian Lister). Among them is the signature top hat worn by Suranne Jones, which will take pride of place in the display.
