If you feel so inclined, there are countless ways to get a taste for the Downton Abbey lifestyle. Getting married? We just learned that you can now rent Lady Mary’s tiara for your wedding day, though the down payment might require a second mortgage.
To lesser extremes, you could simply knit your own Downton Abbey-inspired hat. Or get some 1920s cooking tips from America’s Test Kitchen host Chris Kimball. Pinterest offers endless inspiration for dressing the part.
And if you really want to immerse yourself in the Downton Abbey lifestyle, all you have to do is attend our “Evening Inspired by Downton Abbey” Saturday Feb. 22. We’re taking over the University Club in Madison and turning it into a lavish estate with jazz music, an English pub, food and plenty of fun inspired by Downton Abbey. The event is still a week away, but start planning now if you want to be the person who shows up in Lady Mary’s tiara!
