  • HISTORY and DEVELOPMENT of FASHION Phyllis G
    HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF FASHION Phyllis G. Tortora DOI: 10.2752/BEWDF/EDch10020a Abstract Although the nouns dress and fashion are often used interchangeably, scholars usually define them much more precisely. Based on the definition developed by researchers Joanne Eicher and Mary Ellen Roach Higgins, dress should encompass anything individuals do to modify, add to, enclose, or supplement the body. In some respects dress refers to material things or ways of treating material things, whereas fashion is a social phenomenon. This study, until the late twentieth century, has been undertaken in countries identified as “the West.” As early as the sixteenth century, publishers printed books depicting dress in different parts of the world. Books on historic European and folk dress appeared in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. By the twentieth century the disciplines of psychology, sociology, anthropology, and some branches of art history began examining dress from their perspectives. The earliest writings about fashion consumption propose the “ trickle-down” theory, taken to explain why fashions change and how markets are created. Fashions, in this view, begin with an elite class adopting styles that are emulated by the less affluent. Western styles from the early Middle Ages seem to support this. Exceptions include Marie Antoinette’s romanticized shepherdess costumes. But any review of popular late-twentieth-century styles also find examples of the “bubbling up” process, such as inner-city African American youth styles. Today, despite the globalization of fashion, Western and non-Western fashion designers incorporate elements of the dress of other cultures into their work. An essential first step in undertaking to trace the history and development of fashion is the clarification and differentiation of terms.

So shop for yourself or gift a sari to someone, we have something for everyone. The wavy bun completed her look. Face Deal. Long-time weaving families have found themselves out of work , their looms worthless. Sari , also spelled saree , principal outer garment of women of the Indian subcontinent, consisting of a piece of often brightly coloured, frequently embroidered, silk , cotton , or, in recent years, synthetic cloth five to seven yards long. But for some in Asian American communities, the prospect of the nation's first Black and South Asian Vice President wearing a traditional sari at any of the inauguration events -- even if the celebrations are largely virtual -- has offered a glimmer of positivity amid the tumult. Zari Work. As a politician, Dimple Kapadia's sarees were definitely in tune with the sensibilities but she made a point of draping elegant and minimal saree. Batik Sarees. Party Wear. Pandadi Saree. While she draped handloom sarees in the series, she redefined a politician's look with meticulous fashion sensibility. Test your visual vocabulary with our question challenge! Vintage Sarees. Hence there are the tie-dye Bandhani sarees, Chanderi cotton sarees and the numerous silk saree varieties including the Kanchipuram, Banarasi and Mysore sarees. You can even apply the filter as per the need and choose whatever fulfil your requirements in the best way. Yes No. Valam Prints. Green woven cotton silk saree. Though it's just speculation at this stage, and it's uncertain whether the traditional ball will even go ahead, Harris has already demonstrated a willingness to use her platform to make sartorial statements.

  • Modern Pattern Design by Harriet Pepin
    1942—Modern Pattern Design by Harriet Pepin Chapter 1—Pattern Designing Description of Equipment As the doctor, sculptor or artist should understand the purpose of various tools and equipment common to his profession, it is equally important that the patternmaker understands the purpose for which his equipment has been designed. Most of the following articles may be purchased at art supply houses, tailor's supply firms or at the notion departments in retail stores: 1. Triangle: The transparent right triangle is useful in pattern making to "square" a corner. The two smaller points will serve to establish a true bias from a vertical or horizontal line. Diagrams in problems which follow illustrate how this is done. In the study of geometry we learn that a triangle must total 180 degrees. This right triangle has two 45 degree angles and one 90 degree angle. 2. Tracing Wheel: This clever instrument saves hours of needless labor of thread marking. It is used to transfer lines or symbols from one pattern to another or from the final pattern to the muslin or fabric. When the test muslins are being made by the designer, ordinary pencil carbon may be used. When actual garments are being cut, white carbon or chalk boards are used. These markings can be easily removed later. 3. Carbon Boards: A suitable carbon board can be made by purchasing a 24 × 36 sheet of pencil carbon from an art supply house. This should be laid, face upward, upon a similar size piece of heavy cardboard or ply board. Then a length of cheese cloth is laid over and securely fastened to the back of the board with gum tape or thumb tacks.

  • Sleeveless Blouse Tutorial by Marianne Jeffrey Adventurousquilter.Blogspot.Com
    Sleeveless Blouse Tutorial By Marianne Jeffrey Adventurousquilter.blogspot.com #sleevelessblousebyAQ Quick and easy to make! 1 Fabric Requirements This blouse tutorial has been written to suit any size; you take vital measurements and decide from several options offered. You will need up to: 2 yards of cotton fabric It is highly recommended you use cotton sateen as it drapes well. However you could use quilting cotton. I have found that a high quality yet lighter & softer quilting cotton such as some of those manufactured by Art Gallery Fabrics or M & S Textiles Australia drape well for use in cotton clothing. Harmony Art Organic Design has fabulous organic cotton sateen, you can buy it here: https://organiccottonplus.com/collections/prints-harmony-art Spoonflower also has a cotton sateen available in their range and offers a multitude delightful fabric designs by indie designers: https://www.spoonflower.com/ Rayon is another fabric option that drapes well but be sure to wash and dry before making the blouse to preshrink! Lightweight linen is also a great option or a linen/rayon blend! In dressmaking it is common for sewists to make a “wearable muslin” In simple terms a “muslin” involves making a ‘test’ garment from cheap fabric such as muslin to perfect the garment size, cut etc before using high quality fabrics for the final garment. A “wearable muslin” is made from cheaper quality fabric than your final garment, so that it is a wearable piece of clothing once it is complete! If you choose to do this you can shop the clearance aisle of large retailers such as Joann, Hobby Lobby, Walmart, Spotlight etc to buy cheap yardage for your test garment.
