The choice is a big one for any bride and her taste and style will determine the choice but, as the wedding planner, you can help advise her. A priority is whether the wedding is formal or informal, or if there’s another dress protocol to take into consideration. The time of year and whether it’s a morning or afternoon occasion also matters. If budget allows it may be useful to employ a personal shopper to pick out the most suitable choices. Some guidelines: If the bride has broad shoulders you should avoid strapless dresses as they further accentuate the shoulders and can make the bride look masculine. The shoulders should always be covered for religious weddings, so if the dress choice leaves shoulders bare you’ll need to choose a jacket or shawl to cover them for the church. If, instead, you need to disguise the hips, don’t choose a dress that puts much volume in this area but one that falls limply. Tulle and bulky fabrics accentuate the hips. Fabrics that are often used are lace, tulle, silk, organza, wild silk and satin. Shades of white, ivory and cream are most commonly chosen. Hemlines are mostly full length, though some choose shorter. For night time weddings, the fabric is usually more stiff and formal and more soft and flowing for daytime. The above guidelines would be typical for religious weddings of the Christian faiths. Weddings of other faiths usually have their own traditional or ethnic costumes. In civil weddings, the bride and groom feel freer to choose stylish clothes they may wear again and not feel restricted to the typical garments worn for a church wedding. Choosing the right dress for the body shape: There are several body types, we'll go through the following in this section; inverted triangle shape, hourglass, oval, rectangular and triangular body shapes. Keep these body shapes in mind when advising the bride on what wedding dress to choose. 45 | P a g e CHOOSING A WEDDING DRESS TO SUIT THE BRIDE’S FIGURE Instructions To choose the bride’s dress, take into account many factors, like the type of ceremony, the place the celebration will take place, the time and the season. But, the most important consideration is that the dress helps the bride to look her absolute best. It must suit her figure, her height and her personality. A figure hugging dress is a good choice to accentuate a curvy figure, since it follows the body contours. These dresses are usually fitted to the knee and then open out and widen. It’s an ideal shape for hourglass figures or rectangular shaped figures, but not recommended for women of small stature. The Princess style of dress is the most sought after because it suits many body types. It hides the hips and tummy area and also balances a figure with very broad shoulders. The empire style of dress is also very flattering for different figures and body shapes. It has an elegant Roman feel and is characterised by the seam just below the bust. From the waist down the skirt falls limply and is very graceful. It’s a good choice if the bride is pregnant. The most spectacular of all is the Cinderella style of dress. The top is a tight fitting bodice which joins a spectacular, full skirt. It is highly recommended for women with a defined waist and wide hips, as it disguises the area of the hips and legs. It also looks well on women with broad shoulders but is not recommended for petite figures as it has the effect of shortening the figure. Once the dress has been chosen, the accessories can be matched to this. Whether you chose a traditional headdress or a veil, it should follow the style and tone of the dress. Shoes must also compliment the dress and accessories. It’s important to ensure they are comfortable as the bride will be on her feet for much of the day. New shoes may need to be worn indoors a few times to make sure there is no discomfort on the wedding day. 46 | P a g e INVERTED TRIANGLE SHAPE In this shape, the shoulders are wider than the hips and sometimes the bust is also large. Therefore, the aim is to try to minimise the upper torso and create more curves and volume around the hips in order to bring more proportion. Avoid shoulder pads and dresses with prominent shoulders. Choose V shaped necklines, preferably a narrow V. Avoid wrap style or overlapped at the top. Don’t wear short necklaces unless you’re slim and your neck is long. Avoid dresses that bring attention to the shoulders and avoid narrow and halter straps. Any jackets should be hip rather than waist length. Define hips with a dress the nips at the waste 47 | P a g e HOURGLASS SHAPE The hourglass shape has shoulder width in the same proportion to hips and a defined waist. Brides with this shape can wear most styles. Make the most this shape by emphasising the waist and suggest figure hugging clothes. Lingerie is important for this body shape to create smooth curves. The styles of the 40s 50s and 60s are ideal for this body shape. Avoid dresses that make your hips look wider. 48 | P a g e OVAL SHAPE The oval body shape is characterised by being rounded in the central area, particularly the stomach region. The goal when dressing this shape is to hide the tummy and create a more slender, streamlined outline using the correct clothes and accessories. If the bride is wearing a jacket make sure it doesn't squeeze the torso. There may or may not be a defined waist but it’s better to stick to straight lines. Low V necklines are slimming for this body type Look for empire line dresses (pulled in below the bust). Wear heels to give height.. Accessories should be in proportion with this body type. 49 | P a g e RECTANGULAR SHAPE In this body shape, the torso is small and waist not so defined. The bust and buttocks also tend to be small. The most important thing to remember when dressing this shape is to create curves with the dress and accessories. Choose appropriate underwear to do their part in creating curves. Look for a dress with a defined waist in the correct size. Suggest soft, feminine lines Add big, round accessories Avoid dresses that have square necks and instead search for rounded or V shaped necklines. 50 | P a g e TRIANGULAR SHAPE This body shape has narrow shoulders and hips that are wider. The goal is to hide the hip area and draw attention instead to the face. Suggest a dress with detail which draws the attention upwards. If wearing a jacket is should be structured, defining the torso. Any accessories that attract attention to the upper part of the body and the face are good – Avoid a dress where the bottom half is skin tight– they make the hips look bigger. Choose a dress with an A line shape at the bottom Knowing the body type of the bride will help you give the best advice when helping with the wedding dress. 51 | P a g e Post Wedding Outfits Many brides now opt to wear a different dress or outfit after the banquet. She may be tired of the tedious weight and discomfort posed by some dresses, or may be a fashionista and while she has the spotlight for the day, want to show herself off in another glamorous outfit! It has been a tradition in many countries for the bride and groom to change into a different outfit to leave the guests and start their honeymoon. Now this is changing into an opportunity to wear a second wedding dress, showcase more fashion or wear something more appropriate for a night time party. It is also becoming more popular for the bride and groom to have a day after party. You can help the bride choose the right outfit for this occasion, while keeping in mind the tips for dressing the various body shapes you should also take into consideration the next section on colour analysis, when helping the bride pick out their post wedding outfits.

    Results and Discussion 83 RESULTS and DISCUSSION the Interest That Indian Women Showed in Ornamentation and Aesthetic Expression

    Results and Discussion RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The interest that Indian women showed in ornamentation and aesthetic expression through their costumes has been documented well. It is pertinent to understand the messages that they conveyed through their sartorial preferences which is documented in various forms sculptures, scriptures, literature, paintings, costume archives, cinema, media –advertisements and magazines etcetera. Each community and ethnic group maintained unique characteristics, which become symbols of recognition and identification and served to establish their cultural affiliation. Central to this was the Indian woman who was the symbol of patriarchal society. She combined both the functions of being the nurturer and protector of her household and cultural ethos of the society. The woman was as important part as the man; of the Indian society, which embraced both the indoor and outdoor roles within the social- cultural paradigms of the community. The span of evolution of Indian women’s costume, especially the draped version, the sari has undergone immense changes, however to interpret the semiology of the era bygone is rather complex; as one can attempt to understand and decode the tacit meaning through the lens of current observation only. Since the people who shared the ancient set of rules or code for contextual reading that enables us to connect the signifier with the signified are not present, this will prove to be delimiting. The Indian fashion scene began receiving its due credibility and attention from 1980’s onwards and gained the industry recognition in 21st century: hence this research focuses on new millennium to understand the Indian Fashion System.

    Historic Costuming Presented by Jill Harrison

    Historic Southern Indiana Interpretation Workshop, March 2-4, 1998 Historic Costuming Presented By Jill Harrison IMPRESSIONS Each of us makes an impression before ever saying a word. We size up visitors all the time, anticipating behavior from their age, clothing, and demeanor. What do they think of interpreters, disguised as we are in the threads of another time? While stressing the importance of historically accurate costuming (outfits) and accoutrements for first- person interpreters, there are many reasons compromises are made - perhaps a tight budget or lack of skilled construction personnel. Items such as shoes and eyeglasses are usually a sticking point when assembling a truly accurate outfit. It has been suggested that when visitors spot inaccurate details, interpreter credibility is downgraded and visitors launch into a frame of mind to find other inaccuracies. This may be true of visitors who are historical reenactors, buffs, or other interpreters. Most visitors, though, lack the heightened awareness to recognize the difference between authentic period detailing and the less-than-perfect substitutions. But everyone will notice a wristwatch, sunglasses, or tennis shoes. We have a responsibility to the public not to misrepresent the past; otherwise we are not preserving history but instead creating our own fiction and calling it the truth. Realistically, the appearance of the interpreter, our information base, our techniques, and our environment all affect the first-person experience. Historically accurate costuming perfection is laudable and reinforces academic credence. The minute details can be a springboard to important educational concepts; but the outfit is not the linchpin on which successful interpretation hangs.

    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions

    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Paris Fashions The New Orleans Daily Picayune had the latest word on “Paris Fashions” in 1864 when it printed “A Paris letter of Jan. 24th”, announcing: “A new blue and green have been contrived by the scientific dyers of silks, which keep their color so distinctly and vividly by candle-light as to throw all previous dyes into the shade. These, and a beautiful violet, which does not redden by candle-light, are the favorite new colors, replacing the oak shades so fashionable last winter under the names of ‘Russia leather,’ ‘Queen's hair’ and ‘Wood.’ Figured silks, plaid stripes, small and large Chine flower and brocades keep their place in public favor; but the plain shades are considered the newest and most fashionable for evening dresses.” The above report from France was the result of the latest scientific discoveries in the field of synthetic dyes and a fashion firestorm that took place in the City of Light in 1864. It involved the Empress Eugénie, wife of Emperor Napoléon III of the Second Empire of France, and an exquisite green silk gown (more on that later). Born on May 5, 1826, in Granada, Spain, the Empress Eugénie became the fashion icon of all Europe and across the ocean to New Orleans and the rest of the United States, as well. The Empress adored haute couture, a term first used to describe the work of fashion designer Charles Fredrick Worth (1826-1895), and set a standard in Paris that had not been seen since the days of Josephine.

Finally Sandra Hyde-Page and the members of the QWHA, for their limitless dedication and care which is the foundation on which this whole project is built. PAGE 4 FOREWORD FOREWORD The world of the social history museum is a microcosm of the society from which it has arisen. It reflects the educational and social standards of historic and contemporary life and will change its focus as it is influenced by cultural change. Today it is no longer acceptable for a museum to simply exist. As Stephen Weil said in 2002, museums have to shift focus “from function to purpose” and demonstrate relevance to the local community.
