A closer look behind the scenes of film making and media science reveals that the costumes used in film productions are products of a complex construction process. The costume designer has to put a lot of creative and investigative effort into the creation of costumes to provide the right clothes for a particular role, which means the costume reflects the place and time of play as well as it shows understanding of the characteristics of the role, actor and screenplay overall.

  • 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.

  • Munsingwear" Still Alive in 1894 When Munsing Left to Pursue a Career As an Inventor
    MH f/ QCO ccz!" ODO ILU-I KATIMES.COM , When your underwear is in a bundle, creeping and crawling where it does not belong, the discomfort can have a significant impact on the quality of your day. Hence, the quest for perfect-fitting undergarments. Admittedly, even our worst options today are far superior to the loin cloths, corsets and wool union suits our ancestors had to wear. George D. AAunsing understood the importance of comfort, and he initiated a huge leap forward in the underwear department during the late 1800s. Among his numerous patents involving knitting, sewing and crocheting machines, his most famous involved an itchless wool union suit and better-fitting undershirts and underpants. The company he helped found, which eventually became known as AAunsingwear, was part of the fabric of Minneapolis history for more than 100 years. Here's a brief "under-view" of some of the more colorful swatches of AAunsingwear history. ///////////////////////////^^^^ company couldn't keep up with demand.

It is not the amount of money that one spends so much as it is good judgment in the choice of styles, materials and trimmings.

  • Privacy, Power, and Humiliation at Work: Re-Examining Appearance
    PRIVACY, POWER, AND HUMILIATION AT WORK: RE-EXAMINING APPEARANCE REGULATION AS AN INVASION OF PRIVACY Catherine L. Fisk* It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.1 For several decades, civil libertarians on the bench, at the bar, and in the academy have argued that privacy – whether as a constitutional or statutory right or as protected by the common law – should be understood as two separate concepts: freedom from intrusion and protection for autonomy. As many have observed, they are not unrelated: both are about limiting exertions of government or institutional power for the sake of protecting the boundary between the self and society and, ultimately, the vitality of both. The relationship between privacy and autonomy is quite plain in the workplace. We experience some workplace rules that deny privacy or autonomy as invasions of the self. Perhaps nowhere is the invasion more keenly felt than when an employer demands, under penalty of forfeiting one’s livelihood, that one dress or alter one’s physical appearance in a way that one finds offensive, degrading, inappropriate, or alien. Clothes and appearance are constitutive of how we see and feel about ourselves and how we construct ourselves for the rest of the world to see. Most people give careful * Professor of Law, Duke University School of Law. Thanks to Erwin Chemerinsky, Mitu Gulati, and Erica Williamson for conversations that deepened my thinking on this topic. Williamson’s research for her own work on this topic made my paper possible; her conversations with me made it fun.

  • The Details of English Fashions of the Sixteenth Century: Men's Clothing
    The Details of English Fashions of the Sixteenth Century: Men’s Clothing Examined by Decade by Margaret Roe Also published online at http://www.margaretroedesigns.com/fashions.html © 2010 1 Overview 1500s Shirts, cuffs and collars The shirt of the 1500s was full in the body, gathered into the neckline, sometimes with a narrow collar and sometimes into a scoop-neckline. The sleeves are unseen, but are probably either gathered into a small cuff or simply hemmed. Blackwork is not yet seen at the edges of men's shirts. Breeches Breeches of this decade continued to be the joined hose and codpiece of the fifteenth century. Doublets and jerkins Both doublets and jerkins are worn at this time. The doublet usually had a narrow standing collar, no more than 1" high, whereas the jerkin had a low, round neckline. Both had long skirts, extending to the knees, and both were simplify trimmed. Sleeves Sleeves are often difficult to see under the overgown, but appear to be of two common styles: either narrow but loose sleeves, or narrow to just above the elbow and full to the shoulder, possibly stuffed or padded to maintain a full shape. Sleeves usually matched the doublet or jerkin and were probably sewn into it. Over garments Finally, overgowns are seen in most portraits. These gowns fall either to mid-calf or to the ankles. They most often have very full, long sleeves, but occasionally, the sleeves are only elbow-length or are turned back over the elbows. The collar is turned back around the neck to reveal a different colored lining, which was sometimes fur.
