PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Penn Museum is set to unveil a new exhibition this weekend. Eyewitness News stopped at "The Stories We Wear" on Thursday morning, which is an exhibition that includes everything from dresses to battle armor from 2,500 years ago to the present day.

"The Stories We Wear opens up another way to make archaeology and anthropology accessible to all through style and fashion," Christopher Woods, director of the Penn Museum, said.
