Running Head: The Evolution of Brassiere in the 20th Century 1 The Evolution of Brassiere in the 20th Century Jolene Khor Western Michigan University The Evolution of Brassiere in the 20th Century 2 Abstract It is common knowledge that a brassiere, more widely known as a bra, is an important if not a vital part of a modern woman’s wardrobe today. In the 21st century, a brassiere is no more worn for function as it is for fashion. In order to understand the evolution of function to fashion of a brassiere, it is necessary to account for its historical journey from the beginning to where it is today. This thesis paper, titled The Evolution of Brassiere in the 20th Century will explore the history of brassiere in the last 100 years. While the paper will briefly discuss the pre-birth of the brassiere during Minoan times, French Revolution and early feminist movements, it will largely focus on historical accounts after the 1900s.

    THE HONG KONG POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY INSTITUE OF TEXTILES AND CLOTHING MATERNITY GARMENT TREATMENT FOR THE RELIEF OF LOW BACK PAIN SIMONE HO SIN MAN A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2008 DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to my family Background Low back pain (LBP) is the most common musculoskeletal problem during pregnancy. Pregnant women traditionally wear maternity support belts for back discomfort and have experienced pain relief. However, the designs of these maternity support garments lack scientific research and their clinical efficacy remains elusive. Limited evidence is available to substantiate its putative beneficial effects. Aims This study aims to investigate the garment needs of pregnant women in terms of physical and psychological comfort, based on which to establish design criteria, to develop a maternity support garment, and to evaluate the effect in the maternity garment treatment for the relief of LBP. Methods This study was conducted in three phases: a) an exploratory phase, b) a developmental phase, and c) an evaluative phase. In the exploratory phase, a longitudinal study of 29 pregnant women was undertaken to investigate which biomechanical measures should be used to specify the functional requirements of the maternity support garment. In-depth interviews and wear trials were completed to elicit responses of pregnant women (10 in personal interviews and 14 in wear trials) on 8 maternity support garments. Fabric objective measurements of the same 8 tested garments and 16 alternative samples were conducted before material selection for the first garment prototype. In the developmental phase, the functional garment design criteria were determined and several prototypes were made based on DeJonge’s design framework.

  • Required Clothing List What to Bring on Course
    Required Clothing List What to Bring on Course For the following courses: Alaska Alpine Backpacking Courses Packing for Wilderness Travel Wilderness travel means you can and, for your comfort, should carry a lot less than you do in the regular world; most experienced wilderness travelers will tell you that they bring about the same amount of gear on a three-day trip as they would on a three-week trip. Your COBS Packing List: • Colorado Outward Bound School provides other necessary equipment not on this list, including stoves, sleeping pads, sleeping bags, backpacks, cookware, sleeping tarps, ropes, dry bags, and lifejackets. • There are no additional fees for the use of our equipment, but if our equipment is lost or damaged beyond normal wear and tear, you will be charged for the replacement. • Pack your clothing and gear in a duffel bag or suitcase. You will keep personal items such as clean clothes (for your return trip home) and valuables (cell phones, electronic devices, and wallets) in your bag or suitcase while you are on course. These items are kept at our base camp facility in a locked storage area while you are on course. Please leave unnecessary items at home. • Once on the course, your instructors will help you select from your luggage the best combination of items for you. They will assess your personal gear, the group gear you will be required to carry, and then balance it against your pack weight, physical size, and temperature for the time of year. • Since this list must accommodate ALL the weather conditions you may encounter and consider the wide range of individual preferences and body temperatures of our students, it is very likely you will not use every single item on this list.
