Make Trousers (Beginners)
Make Trousers (beginners) This tutorial will help you to make your first pair of trousers. If you have already made some in the past and are just looking for a recap, you probably want the refresher tutorial. Note trousers are not gender specific so one pattern for all. You will need: Approx 1.5m fabric (you will not use all of this, but you will probably need this much to fit the pattern on) Needle Thread Tape measure Pencil/chalk Pins Sewing machine (if you want to cheat) Cord (to hold your trousers up) Measurements: You will need to note down 6 measurements before you can start marking out. Outer leg length – from waist to ankle down the outside of the leg (that’s over your hip, not down the front of your leg). Once you have this, add 2 inches for the waist-band. Inner leg length – from groin to ankle Hip width – circumference of widest point (either around hips or bum, depending on your shape. Choose the bigger of these measurements). Once you have your measurement, quarter it. Thigh width – circumference of widest point of thigh. half this measurement and add 1 inch for comfort you don’t want this bit to be too tight) Ankle width – circumference of ankle (make sure you can get your foot through!) then half it. Underside length – imagine the line of your waist. You need to measure from front to back, between your legs to your waist line. Once you have this measurement, half it and add 2 inches. IMPORTANT – Once you have these, add 1/2 inch (1.5cm) to all to allow for seams.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW OF THE STUDY 1.1 INTRODUCTION Members of a specific group or organisation have their own beliefs, behaviours and traditions which provide important information about the group‟s socialising functions (Kaiser 1998:351). The clothes that people wear and their modes of dress are important clues in acquiring specific knowledge about the wearers. Clothing symbols are not stagnant and take on different meanings, depending on when, where and how the clothes are worn (Marshall, Jackson, Stanley, Kefgen & Touchie-Specht 2000:5). Therefore, school uniforms are an excellent example of information that is conveyed about the learners and the schools they attend. A school uniform represents the school which the learner attends, and signals meanings about the values, beliefs, ethics, traditions and general image which the school maintains, as well as the discipline sustained (Kaiser 1997:226-227). The adoption of a school uniform enables people to observe and monitor the behaviour of the wearer of the uniform (Craik 2005:52, Kaiser 1997:589). Are uniforms then a good idea? A more detailed discussion of advantages and disadvantages of school uniforms follow in section 2.5, but a brief introduction on this aspect will be given here. The most logical response to this well known question is that nobody knows but at present supporters of school uniforms argue that uniforms serve as a social and economic equaliser, diminishing competition regarding clothing and reducing demands on parents to buy expensive, trendy clothes. It also advances learners safety as officials can recognise intruders who come into the school grounds.

Fashion Terminology Today Describe Your Heritage Collections with an Eye on the Future
Fashion Terminology Today Describe your heritage collections with an eye on the future Ykje Wildenborg MoMu – Fashion Museum of the Province of Antwerp, Belgium Europeana Fashion, Modemuze Abstract: This article was written for ‘non-techy people’, or people with a basic knowledge of information technology, interested in preparing their fashion heritage metadata for publication online. Publishing fashion heritage on the web brings about the undisputed need for a shared vocabulary, especially when merged. This is not only a question of multilingualism. Between collections and even within collections different words have been used to describe, for example, the same types of objects, materials or techniques. In professional language: the data often is “unclean”. Linked Data is the name of a development in information technology that could prove useful for fashion collecting institutions. It means that the descriptions of collections, in a computer readable format, have a structure that is extremely easy for the device to read. As alien as it may sound, Linked Data practices are already used by the data departments of larger museums, companies and governmental institutions around the world. It eliminates the need for translation or actual changing of the content of databases. It only concerns ‘labeling’ of terms in databases with an identifier. With this in mind, MoMu, the fashion museum of Antwerp, Belgium, is carrying out a termi- nology project in Flanders and the Netherlands, in order to motivate institutions to accomplish the task of labeling their terms. This article concludes with some of the experiences of this adventure, but firstly elucidates the context of the situation.

Women in Pants: a Study of Female College Students Adoption Of
WOMEN IN PANTS: A STUDY OF FEMALE COLLEGE STUDENTS ADOPTION OF BIFURCATED GARMENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA FROM 1960 TO 1974 by CANDICE NICHOLE LURKER SAULS Under the direction of Patricia Hunt-Hurst ABSTRACT This research presented new information regarding the adoption of bifurcated garments by female students at the University of Georgia from1960 to 1974. The primary objectives were to examine photographs of female students at the University of Georgia in The Pandora yearbooks as well as to review written references alluding to university female dress codes as well as regulations and guidelines. The photographs revealed that prior to 1968 women at UGA wore bifurcated garments for private activities taking place in dorms or at sorority houses away from UGA property. The study also showed an increase in frequency from 1968 to 1974 due to the abolishment of the dress code regulations. In reference to the specific bifurcated garments worn by female students, the findings indicated the dominance of long pants. This study offers a sample of the changes in women’s dress during the tumultuous 1960s and 1970s, which then showed more specifically how college women dressed in their daily lives across America.

Clothing and Fashion for Wheelchair Users Clothes Can Be Fashionable
Clothing and fashion for wheelchair users Clothes can be fashionable, functional, comfortable and smart. They are often an expression of personality. People like to look and feel good in what they wear. However most clothing is designed to enhance the appearance of the wearer when standing upright. When seated, people have a different body shape, with the hips and knees bent. Standard skirts and trousers can gap at the back and bunch at the front of the waist. Over a period of time, the body shape and proportions of someone who sits all the time can change. The waist may thicken and hips and thighs broaden. Many disabled people have great difficulty finding clothes, which not only fit them properly but are also in fashion. For people with neuromuscular conditions there may be the additional problems of postural deformities developing, and progressive loss of function and mobility. Clothes for wheelchair users - what to look for: Style and comfort Outerwear Coats and jackets should be short at the back so they are not sat upon. It is difficult for a seated person to put on, or cope with, a full-length coat. Casual jackets, anoraks or sleeveless bodywarmers which finish just below the waist are easier. Blouson-style jackets which finish just below the waist are flattering for a wheelchair user. Jackets designed for wheelchair users are usually short at the back and longer in the front. People who use wheelchairs may find a hip length jacket more suitable, with slits in the side seams at waist level to avoid strain over the hips.
