Early 1850 bodices had a Basque opening over a che- misette, the bodice continued to be very close fitting, the waist sharp and the shoulder less slanted, during the 1850s to 1866. During the 1850s the dresses were cut without a waist seam and during the 1860s the round waist was raised to some extent. The decade of the 1870s is one of the most intricate era of women’s fashion. The style of the early 1870s relied on the renewal of the polonaise, strained on the back, gath- ered and puffed up into an detailed arrangement at the rear, above a sustaining bustle, to somewhat broaden at the wrist. The underskirt, trimmed with pleated fragments, inserting ribbon bands. An abundance of puffs, borders, rib- bons, drapes, and an outlandish mixture of fabric and colors besieged the past proposal for minimalism and looseness. women’s daywear Victorian women received their first corset at the age of 3.

The Influence of English in Spanish Fashion Terminology
Isabel Balteiro* Departamento de Filología Inglesa Universidad de Alicante, España [email protected] THE INFLUENCE OF ENGLISH ON SPANISH FASHION TERMINOLOGY: -ING FORMS Abstract As has been the case with other European languages, Spanish has welcomed the arrival of English words, in spite of all purist efforts to the contrary. Moreover, it has not only adopted and adapted true Anglicisms but it has also created other forms based on English patterns, such mechanisms particularly visible in the 156 fashion jargon in Spanish. In this paper we focus on -ing forms in the Spanish language of fashion, which may at times be genuine Anglicisms (formal or semantic ones) or false Anglicisms (analogical creations, that is, English-looking lexical elements), found in Spanish editions of fashion magazines such as Vogue, Elle, InStyle, Grazia, Glamour, and Cosmopolitan. The main aim of this study is to qualitatively analyse and classify -ing Anglicisms and false Anglicisms in the aforementioned jargon in order to establish whether the impact of English in the Spanish fashion jargon is so important as to replace native words and expressions. Key words -ing forms, borrowing, Anglicisms, false Anglicisms, fashion jargon, Spanish. * Corresponding address: Dr. Isabel Balteiro, Dpto. de Filología Inglesa, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Alicante, Apdo. 99, 03080 Alicante, España. Vol. 2(2)(2014): 156-173 e-ISSN:2334-9050 THE INFLUENCE OF ENGLISH ON SPANISH FASHION TERMINOLOGY: -ING FORMS Sažetak Kao i u slučaju ostalih evropskih jezika, španski je rado prihvatio dolazak reči iz engleskog, uprkos svim purističkim naporima da se to ne dogodi. Štaviše, ne samo što su prihvaćeni i prilagođeni pravi anglicizmi, već su stvoreni i novi oblici na osnovu engleskih tvorbenih obrazaca, što je naročito uočljivo u španskom jeziku mode.

The colour theme that we chose was Runway Looks a combination of green and blue. From destination wedding attire, to black tie attire, to white tie attire, we wanted a unique show with unexpected looks that stand out on the runway. For the Travelling Groom Destination weddings have been a growing trend. Many couples combine their wedding with a tropical getaway to share memories with their close friends and family.

LAMBERT, DIRECTOR 2 Christmas Wraps and Trims Elsie DeLunger Many people enjoy the beauty of a well trimmed gift almost as much as the gift itself. We feel flattered to receive a gift wrapped especially for us, for it indicates particular consideration which we appreciate. Some people would r .ather have a gift untrimmed and very simply wrapped. Here are basic principles of gift wrapping: (1) Simple. The simple, well-done trims are most beautiful. (2) Attractive. Use but one idea on each package. Select a few well chosen colors. Keep the package very neat. (3) Easy-to-do. This is best choice for children to do, and for inexper ienced grownups. (4) Inexpensive. The wrap should not overshadow the gift. Attractive wrappings need not be expensive.
