In the Whanganui Regional Museum's Te Puni Taonga/Treasure House you'll find Dressed to Thrill — a contrast of 1870s and 1970s clothing and accessories, from big bustles to trouser suits for women and from heavy dark suits to lightweight pale fitted suits for men. The exhibition asks the question "what is a taonga or treasure?".
