But what exactly is she wearing? And what else would she wear? This edition of Pickled Fish focuses on women’s clothing in the years between 1760 and 1780, when the Derby Family were living in the “little brick house” on Derby Street. Like today, women in the 18th century dressed up or down depending on their social status or the work they were doing. Like today, women dressed up or down depending on the situation, and also like today, the shape of most garments was common to upper and lower classes, but differentiated by expense of fabric, quality of workmanship, and how well the garment fit. Number of garments was also determined by a woman’s class and income level; and as we shall see, recent scholarship has caused us to revise the number of garments owned by women of the upper classes in Essex County. Unfortunately, the portrait and two items of clothing are all that remain of Elizabeth’s wardrobe. Few family receipts have survived, and even the de- tailed inventory of Elias Hasket Derby’s estate in 1799 does not include any cloth- ing, male or female. However, because Pastel portrait of Elizabeth Crowninshield Derby, c. 1780, by Benjamin Blythe.

The course falls under an emerging area of design necessity. The yesteryear fashion designing course churned out designers for the field of clothing and its related industry but without a thorough understanding of the society, environment or technologies around them. The course is based on the core subject – “Design Thinking” with an aim of creating a ‘Responsible Designer’. This programme provides a perspective of society, environment, education, technology and innovation so that a fresh and unique approach in the fields of clothing, accessories and furnishings may be developed thereby creating more meaningful products and experiences. The syllabus of the course is designed in such a way that it provides skill development required to be a successful fashion designer along with entrepreneurial skills to set up their own venture.

It was here between the walls of this palace that the life of the monarch, his family and his court was concentrated, bringing together almost all of what Saint-Simon called “la France”, its government and administration, and creating a model that was to impose its style on all of Europe. While this model derived many of its rules from older traditions, notably those of the court of Bourgogne exalted by the court of Spain, it was under Louis XIV, “the greatest king on earth”, in Versailles, that the court and hence the codes of court life acquired that singular sumptuousness designed to impress ordinary mortals with the fact that the life lived around their monarch was of a higher essence than that of other mortals, however powerful, noble and rich they might be.

  • Recreating History: Examining the Bustle Dress Presentation By: Tyler Phillips Costume Technology MFA Candidate the Project
    Recreating History: Examining the Bustle Dress Presentation by: Tyler Phillips Costume Technology MFA Candidate The Project The process for this research begins with a painting. For this project the painting is In the Greenhouse by Albert Bartholome. I have long found this painting mesmerizing and thought about how this dress would be built. For those who reconstruct historical costumes for theatre most of the real-world research we do begins with a drawing or painting of some form. From this we must research the historical methods used to craft these garments and then, for the purposes of the theatrical production, decide whether to disregard, modify, or utilize these historical methods. It is my belief that research into the construction of these historical garments is beneficial to modern makers for theater. It broadens knowledge beyond the contemporary garment industry practices and fosters not only deeper understanding of historical technique but also this research endows makers with the understanding of what goes into creating a historical garment. From under structures outward, there is more work that exist underneath the exterior layers. The Inspiration and beginning of this Project In The Greenhouse Albert Bartholome The Bustle Cage The initial layer constructed for this project. It is comprised of sprung steel hoops tipped and finished to soften the edges. Strung through drapery tape and secured into the Coutil base to hold them in tension. The Skirt The skirt layer is two rectangular layers of white and purple cotton satine. The white stripe is pleated out, and stitched down only remaining free at the hem.

Stannard, Louisiana State University, USA Keywords: Zero-waste, sustainability, historic, free-motion embroidery This design began with the fabric. The designer had been holding onto a large piece of vintage, red wool melton for over four years because she did not want to waste the expensive fabric. The fabric was 58” wide by 144” long. Thus, a zero-waste approach was adopted so that none of the fabric would end up on the cutting room floor and because of the importance of sustainable practices in the industry. The designer then investigated some typical approaches and past garments using zero-waste techniques (Rissanen & Mcquillan, 2016). Many designers view zero-waste as a brand-new design philosophy.

  • Fabrics and Fashion in Clothing of the 18Th Century
    39 OPEN SOURCE LANGUAGE VERSION > ESPAÑOL Fabrics and fashion in clothing of the 18th century by Bárbara Rosillo, PhD in Art History 1 I have covered this topic Notary records are an essential source in studying fashion and the household more extensively and in more furnishings throughout the Modern Era. Dowry letters and post-mortem detail in my book: La moda en la sociedad sevillana del inventories give us a huge amount of information on textiles, both those used to siglo xviii, which won second make clothing and those for household items. These sources provide first-hand place in the Art category knowledge of the type of garments women and men wore, from underwear to of the Archivo Hispalense 1 2016 awards. Sección Arte, suits, as well as the many accessories . serie 1, nº 58. Excelentísima The dowry was laid out in a document before a scribe and witnesses. With Diputación de Sevilla, 2018, the parties present, the grantor and the future husband, a letter of payment and pp. 295. receipt was signed, which contained a detailed list of the tangible and intangible items in the dowry. Providing a dowry was nearly essential to get married, so it was a practice seen at all levels of the social spectrum, from ladies of high nobility to poor damsels. This type of document is of great interest, as it shows all the pieces that were part of the female wardrobe, including the fabrics, colours and decorations. To learn about male garments, we must turn to post-mortem inventories and appraisals of goods, or a type of document known as “capital” or “capital” inventory, which some men gave the families of their future bride before the wedding.
