The fashions of 'Downton Abbey'

"The best thing we found out was that by 1916, the stiff collars that nurses had had went out of use, as they just weren't practical - so I've got a soft collar, which is a relief. There's a grey underdress, which is plain and quite long. Pointed shoes, white cuffs, apron and a red cross on the sleeve. The headdress is quite severe - the hair and make-up department had a job trying to find a way for me to have a little fringe or curl at the side."
