Equestrian sporting events are underway this week at the #Olympics in Tokyo. The sport itself has played a significant role in Maryland's history and culture. This equestrian costume from the Fashion Archive at the Maryland Center for History and Culture is an example of what a woman participating in the sport in the 1940s would have worn. We wish all Maryland athletes good luck in representing #TeamUSA in #Tokyo2020. Image: Equestrian costume, maker unknown, c.1940s.
