Nora Walker dress worn by Sally Field in TV's Brothers & Sisters...

Brothers & Sisters ran for five seasons from 2006 to 2011 on ABC and starred Sally Field as 'Nora Walker', the matriarch of family who live in Pasadena, California, who finds out her husband was cheating on her when he died. The Walkers included three grown sons, plus two daughters and their families, plus illegitimate siblings from their dead father and a whole host of other secrets.

This elegant dress worn by Sally Field on the show, which I believe may be from the fifth season of the TV drama, was photographed on display from the Walt Disney Archives at the Disney Studios in Burbank on December 30, 2011.

TV and movie costumes on display from the Walt Disney Archives...

At the very end of 2011, I was fortunate to pop onto the Disney Studio lot in Burbank, California to check out the latest costumes on display from the Walt Disney Archives.

Original TV and movie treasures from the Walt Disney Archives

Included in the exhibit in the lobby of the Frank G. Wells building on December 30, were outfits featured in popular ABC television shows and Disney films.

The reflection of the sun on the cases doesn't always make it possible to get great images of the displays, so you can also check out these costumes and props from Disney's Secretariat on display at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood and at ArcLight Sherman Oaks cinema.

I've previously seen some of the other costumes on display at Disney's D23 Expo, but it was nice to get a closer look at them again, plus see some new additions I'd never glimpsed before in person.

Stay tuned in the days to come for more photos of these costumes, including:

Mia Wasikowska's White Knight battle armour from Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland

Betty White's Grandma Bunny wedding outfit from You Again

Hospital scrubs autographed by the cast of ABC's General Hospital soap

Bootstrap Bill costume worn by Stellan Skarsgard in Pirates of the Caribbean
