I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Randy Head, for his excellent guidance, caring, and wisdom. His support and enthusiasm for my study was a continual source of motivation. The advice and insights of my dissertation committee members, Dr. Heidi Brevik-Zender, Dr. Tom Cogswell, and Dr. Dana Simmons, have been invaluable on both an academic and a personal level, for which I am extremely grateful. A special thanks to Heidi for her friendship and for including me in her museum visits and dinner parties in Paris. Many thanks to all of my fellow graduate students and friends—those who have moved on as well as those who continue to persevere in their studies. A special thanks to Muey Saeteurn whose great friendship and emotional support sustained me through many an educational and personal quagmire. Jillian Azevedo and Stephanie Wilms Simpson have been great friends and allies on our journey toward the doctorate. I appreciate academic and financial support I received from a variety of sources. The awards of a Graduate Dean's Dissertation Research Grant from the University of California, Riverside’s Graduate Council and a Humanities Graduate Student Research Grant from the Center for Ideas and Society at the University of California, Riverside made it possible for me to undertake my research in France. My research in France was enriched by frequent conversations over coffee with Steve Zdatny after long days at the B.N. and insights from other generous academics including Judith Miller and Daryl iv Hafter. Additionally, the award of a Gimon Collection Visiting Scholar Fellowship at the Stanford University libraries provided me with access to indispensable sources and allowed me to benefit from the insights of Sarah Sussman and several graduate students. Above all, I would like to thank my family. This project would have never come to fruition without my parents who pushed me and supported me through it all—my dad, Richard, without whom I never would have started on this journey and my mom, Susan, who was both confidante and research assistant. I am grateful to my husband, Glendon Lee, who put up with my complaints and encouraged me to continue when I wanted to give up. Finally, my little Amelia, who arrived before this project was done and who spent much of her first few months “helping” me write. v For my Dad, the first Dr. Pfiefer vi ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Undressed: Undergarments as Cultural Limina in Eighteenth-Century France by Emily Catherine Pfiefer Doctor of Philosophy, Graduate Program in History University of California, Riverside, December 2014 Dr. Randolph C. Head, Chairperson In the sixteenth century, few Europeans wore undergarments; by the nineteenth century, undergarments were commonplace. This change came about through the invention, production, and adoption of a new form of clothing, closely connected to changing concepts of the body as well as evolving social codes of consumption, hygiene, and class. Over the course of the eighteenth century, the people of Europe, and particularly of France, developed an obsession with undergarments. Full court dress began to lose its appeal, and by the end of the century, Queen Marie Antoinette shocked the nation with her Gaulle, an informal gown made to look like an undergarment itself. Through a multitude of sources and interdisciplinary methods of analysis, this study presents an interpretation of undergarments as the limina between public and private, as well as the locus in where changing concepts of the body played out over the long eighteenth century. By analyzing ideas about undergarments and their relationships with the body and society in comparison with social and individual conceptions and uses of undergarments, this study illuminates cultural concepts of outer and under in addition vii to notions of public and private. Similarly, by interpreting ideas about the outer and under and the role of undergarments for personal, individual use versus public, social use, this study probes evolving concepts of private and public in eighteenth-century France. By incorporating personal sensibilities about undergarments with social and cultural analyses of undergarments as material goods, this project contributes to studies of material culture and material life, as well as to understandings of the body and its relationship with material goods and society. Hence, this study, with its systematic, cultural approach provides a new, historical conceptualization of undergarments, so long unmentionable, as they emerged in the eighteenth century. viii CONTENTS FIGURES ............................................................................................................................ x INTRODUCTION: Undressing the Eighteenth Century .................................................... 1 1.

Could you describe your career path as a researcher? How did it lead you to textiles? Jean-Paul Leclercq. From 1994 to 2006 I was curator of the collections of pre-1914 costumes and textiles at Les Arts décoratifs in Paris, and I took on the task of expanding them.1 Putting my advocacy for collaboration between museums into action, I drew up the dossier that enabled the Musée des Tissus in Lyon to acquire the 190 Grands livres de fabrique of the Lyon-based company Bianchini-Férier (1889-1964, a continuous series of some 25,000 fabrics to stimulate thinking), which had employed artists such as Raoul Dufy and Paul Iribe. This acquisition was made with assistance from the Heritage Fund,2 whose support is “reserved for acquisitions of cultural properties of major heritage importance” and had the fortunate effect of conferring inalienability on the collection, both aspects that acted to counter the threats of closure facing the museum.

  • “The Answer to Laundry in Outer Space”: the Rise and Fall of The
    Archived thesis/research paper/faculty publication from the University of North Carolina at Asheville’s NC DOCKS Institutional Repository: http://libres.uncg.edu/ir/unca/ University of North Carolina Asheville “The Answer to Laundry in Outer Space”: The Rise and Fall of the Paper Dress in 1960s American Fashion A Senior Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Department of History In Candidacy for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts in History By Virginia Knight Asheville, North Carolina November 2014 1 A woman stands in front of a mirror in a dressing room, a sales assistant by her side. The sales assistant, with arms full of clothing and a tape measure around her neck, beams at the woman, who is looking at her reflection with a confused stare. The woman is wearing what from the front appears to be a normal, knee-length floral dress. However, the mirror behind her reveals that the “dress” is actually a flimsy sheet of paper that is taped onto the woman and leaves her back-half exposed. The caption reads: “So these are the disposable paper dresses I’ve been reading about?” This newspaper cartoon pokes fun at one of the most defining fashion trends in American history: the paper dress of the late 1960s.1 In 1966, the American Scott Paper Company created a marketing campaign where customers sent in a coupon and shipping money to receive a dress made of a cellulose material called “Dura-Weave.” The coupon came with paper towels, and what began as a way to market Scott’s paper products became a unique trend of American fashion in the late 1960s.

  • History and Drafting of Hose By: Adelheid Holtzhauer
    History and Drafting of Hose By: Adelheid Holtzhauer Introduction Leg coverings of some sort have been worn throughout history by both men and women. For the purposes of this class, the hose we will be looking at are fitted, closed footed and made of woven fabric. There are many garments called Hose and Hosen worn throughout history. Extant examples have been found dating back to the 2nd century such as the footed hose found a Martres-de- Veyre. Image 1: Womens woollen twill hose excavated at Martres-de-Veyre Although there are many different garments that could be referred to as hose, in this class we will be focusing on "Single Hose" and "Attached Hose". Single hose cover one leg and can vary in length/height. Attached hose are essentially tight fitted trews. Over the course of time, single hose went from knee length and gartered with trim, to full fitted "pants" to thigh high and attached with to a belt at the waist, to detached and gartered under the knee to the full legging style common in the late 161h century. Image 2 shows a pair of attached hose which are carbon dated to 1355 AD and were found in the Damendorf Bog.

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.

He squinted at the clock and sad, “Forty minutes before lunch time. Too hot in here and how. Better wait outside.” “But,” I remonstrated, “the heat doesn't bother me.
