Original Outlander season one TV costumes on display...

Starz Outlander series is based on Diana Gabaldon's best-selling series of books and follows the adventures of a married combat nurse from the 1940's who's flung back in time to the 18th century Scottish Highlands, where she must make new alliances, including romantic ones, to survive.

Here's a collection of original costumes from from hit series on display at The Grove shopping center in L.A. on May 27, 2015.

This exhibit has toured around a bit to support Outlander premiere screening events and the like, but Im sure it's in L.A. to help raise the show's profile in the key Emmy Award campaigning season, and I'm sure they're hoping that Terry Dresbach will win for Outstanding Costumes for a Series.

I'm sure most fans will have seen these costumes already in some form or another, but here's a collection of costumes from the first season on display, although as ever having to cope with reflective protective cases never makes photography easy, so apologies for the quality.

I'm certain most people will want to see the lovely embroidered wedding dress worn by Caitriona Balfe as the plucky time-traveling heroine 'Claire Randall'. Sadly I couldn't get a great shot of 'Jamie Fraser's' wedding outfit, but you get the general idea.

Next up are two more costumes worn by the two lead actors. Claire's forest green, charcoal grey and navy tartan dress can not only be see in 'The Gathering' and 'Rent' first season episodes, but it also features prominently on the midseason billboards an promotional art for the returning show. Meanwhile the season one costume worn by Sam Heughan as 'Jamie Fraser' features the show's signature brown, tan and blue-grey check Outlander tartan.

You can also find out far more detail about the thought that went into these costumes and updates on new season costumes at Terry Dresbach's website.

Outlander season two TV costumes on display at FIDM Museum...

In the second season of Starz TV adaptation of Diana Gabaldon's Outlander books, the time-tossed WWII combat nurse 'Claire Randall' (Caitriona Balfe) and her Scottish Highlands love 'Jamie Fraser' (Sam Heughan) head across the channel to the aristocratic and fashionable 18th century French Court of Paris.

When husband and wife 'Jamie and Claire Fraser travel from Scotland to infiltrate high society Paris, we get to see our heroine out of tartan and wearing some fabulous gowns like the ones on display at this exhibit.

During the second season Jamie Fraser may sport finer silk outfits to fit into Parisian culture, but Sam Heughan still looks pretty fine when he's wearing his tartan kilts and leather frock coat.

For Claire, the only problem with traveling through time is not only do you have to juggle multiple husbands, but you also have to wear era appropriate wardrobe too.

Fans of these period outfits can also check out more costumes from Outlander's first season on display at The Grove shopping mall last year.

In the sophomore season Claire Fraser also meets another time-traveller in the form of 'Master Raymond', an apothecary in Paris in 1744. Each panel of his coat is dedicated to a different disease.
