  • The Influence of Clothing on First Impressions: Rapid and Positive Responses
    The influence of clothing on first impressions: Rapid and positive responses to minor changes in male attire Keywords: Clothing, first impressions, bespoke, influence, communication The influence of clothing on first impressions: Rapid and positive responses to minor changes in male attire. In a world that is becoming dominated by multimedia, the likelihood of people being judged on snapshots of their appearance is increasing. Social networking, dating websites and online profiles all feature people’s photographs, and subsequently convey a visual message to an audience. Whilst the salience of facial features is well documented, other factors, such as clothing, will also play a role in impression formation. Clothing can communicate an extensive and complex array of information about a person, without the observer having to meet or talk to the wearer. A person’s attire has been shown to convey qualities such as character, sociability, competence and intelligence (Damhorst, 1990), with first impressions being formed in a fraction of a second (Todorov, Pakrashi, and Oosterhof, 2009). This study empirically investigates how the manipulation of small details in clothing gives rise to different first impressions, even those formed very quickly. Damhorst (1990) states that ‘dress is a systematic means of transmission of information about the wearer’ (p. 1). A person’s choice of clothing can heavily influence the impression they transmit and is therefore a powerful communication tool. McCracken (1988) suggests that clothing carries cultural meaning and that this information is passed from the ‘culturally constructed world’ to clothing, through advertising and fashion. Clothes designers can, through branding and marketing, associate a new product or certain designs with an established cultural norm (McCracken, 1988).

  • Basque Soccer Madness a Dissertation Submitted in Partial
    University of Nevada, Reno Sport, Nation, Gender: Basque Soccer Madness A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Basque Studies (Anthropology) by Mariann Vaczi Dr. Joseba Zulaika/Dissertation Advisor May, 2013 Copyright by Mariann Vaczi All Rights Reserved THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the dissertation prepared under our supervision by Mariann Vaczi entitled Sport, Nation, Gender: Basque Soccer Madness be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Joseba Zulaika, Advisor Sandra Ott, Committee Member Pello Salaburu, Committee Member Robert Winzeler, Committee Member Eleanor Nevins, Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Dean, Graduate School May, 2013 i Abstract A centenarian Basque soccer club, Athletic Club (Bilbao) is the ethnographic locus of this dissertation. From a center of the Industrial Revolution, a major European port of capitalism and the birthplace of Basque nationalism and political violence, Bilbao turned into a post-Fordist paradigm of globalization and gentrification. Beyond traditional axes of identification that create social divisions, what unites Basques in Bizkaia province is a soccer team with a philosophy unique in the world of professional sports: Athletic only recruits local Basque players. Playing local becomes an important source of subjectivization and collective identity in one of the best soccer leagues (Spanish) of the most globalized game of the world. This dissertation takes soccer for a cultural performance that reveals relevant anthropological and sociological information about Bilbao, the province of Bizkaia, and the Basques. Early in the twentieth century, soccer was established as the hegemonic sports culture in Spain and in the Basque Country; it has become a multi- billion business, and it serves as a powerful political apparatus and symbolic capital.

However, the possibilities of these technologies cover only the contemporary marketable clothes, while the insight in the aspect of historical costume is very limited. In this research, we developed the method that allows to reconstruct and do the virtual try-on of historical men’s suit consisting from four different garments—trousers, shirts, vest, and coat. The method includes, on one hand, the analysis of pattern drafting systems, patterns construction, special means of bespoke tailoring that were popular in the history and, on the other hand, the way of its adapting and preparing to contemporary technologies of 2D and 3D design. The exploration was done with men’s suit and the patterns from the nineteenth century. We studied how the tailors took all measurements, the content of size charts including divisional, direct measurements, and its combination. To parameterize the historical patterns of men’s clothes, we created the schedule of special indexes. We developed the method how to identify the means of garment shaping by steam pressing, which are hiding in the patterns, and how to perform ones by darts.

    10 Secrets other tailors may not tell you • Hand Made = Better Made? • Far East – Why You Should Be Very Careful • Savile Row • Tradition or Technology? • The Myth of The Final Fitting • Bespoke or Made-to- Measure? • Value for Money • Being Ethical – Why You Should Care • The Designer Brand • The Extra Trouser 1 10 secrets other tailors may not tell you Made-to-measure tailoring is now very popular with more providers entering the market. Unfortunately, there are many ‘tailors’ who either lack any technical knowledge or use misleading terminology to describe their products. Anyone with a tape measure can call themselves a ‘tailor’; regrettably there are no professional trade standards to determine if an individual has any qualification apart from the City & Guilds examinations. “I made a suit for a client who had also bought a suit from another company. He told me that their jacket was too tight across the shoulders and the back seam was splitting. When he complained to the tailor he was told that he wasn’t used to the feel of a bespoke suit. I measured the jacket and it was 2” tighter across the back than our suit which fitted perfectly.” To get the best fitting suit, you have to trust your tailor to give you the best possible advice, but it will always help if you have a better understanding of which product options to ask for before you de- cide to purchase a new suit.
