They can give the illusion of a much-broader shoulder, more square or rounded, or softened shoulder line. Anatomi- cally, shoulder pads are generally for people with narrow or sloping shoulders. Shoulder pads will be necessary in the Volume-Look for a suit or blazer in oder to build up a natural proportion with the over- flow of fabric.

Degrees of suffering and discomfort have varied and we have probably all endured agonies, in some way, when constructing our appearance, in order to face the world. This could range from a simple cut from shaving, to the discomfort and pain of folding tender flesh into a girdle! These are only two, of numerous possible examples.

  • Glossary of Sewing Terms
    Glossary of Sewing Terms Judith Christensen Professional Patternmaker ClothingPatterns101 Why Do You Need to Know Sewing Terms? There are quite a few sewing terms that you’ll need to know to be able to properly follow pattern instructions. If you’ve been sewing for a long time, you’ll probably know many of these terms – or at least, you know the technique, but might not know what it’s called. You’ll run across terms like “shirring”, “ease”, and “blousing”, and will need to be able to identify center front and the right side of the fabric. This brief glossary of sewing terms is designed to help you navigate your pattern, whether it’s one you purchased at a fabric store or downloaded from an online designer. You’ll find links within the glossary to “how-to” videos or more information at ClothingPatterns101.com Don’t worry – there’s no homework and no test! Just keep this glossary handy for reference when you need it! 2 A – Appliqué – A method of surface decoration made by cutting a decorative shape from fabric and stitching it to the surface of the piece being decorated. The stitching can be by hand (blanket stitch) or machine (zigzag or a decorative stitch). Armhole – The portion of the garment through which the arm extends, or a sleeve is sewn. Armholes come in many shapes and configurations, and can be an interesting part of a design. B - Backtack or backstitch – Stitches used at the beginning and end of a seam to secure the threads. To backstitch, stitch 2 or 3 stitches forward, then 2 or 3 stitches in reverse; then proceed to stitch the seam and repeat the backstitch at the end of the seam.

  • A Study on the Design and Composition of Victorian Women's Mantle
    Journal of Fashion Business Vol. 14, No. 6, pp.188~203(2010) A Study on the Design and Composition of Victorian Women’s Mantle * Lee Sangrye ‧ Kim Hyejeong Professor, Dept. of Fashion Design, TongMyong University * Associate Professor, Dept. of Clothing Industry, Hankyong National University Abstract This study purposed to identify the design and composition characteristics of mantle through a historical review of its change and development focusing on women’s dress. This analysis was particularly focused on the Victorian age because the variety of mantle designs introduced and popularized was wider than ever since ancient times to the present. For this study, we collected historical literature on mantle from ancient times to the 19 th century and made comparative analysis of design and composition, and for the Victorian age we investigated also actual items from the period. During the early Victorian age when the crinoline style was popular, mantle was of A‐ line silhouette spreading downward from the shoulders and of around knee length. In the mid Victorian age from 1870 to 1889 when the bustle style was popular, the style of mantle was changed to be three‐ dimensional, exaggerating the rear side of the bustle skirt. In addition, with increase in women’s suburban activities, walking costume became popular and mantle reached its climax. With the diversification of design and composition in this period, the name of mantle became more specific and as a result, mantle, mantelet, dolman, paletot, etc. were used. The styles popular were: it looked like half-jacket and half-cape. Ornaments such as tassels, fur, braids, rosettes, tufts and fringe were attached to create luxurious effects.

  • The Oxford Dictionary of New Words: a Popular Guide to Words in the News
    The Oxford Dictionary of New Words: A popular guide to words in the news PREFACE Preface This is the first dictionary entirely devoted to new words and meanings to have been published by the Oxford University Press. It follows in the tradition of the Supplement to the Oxford English Dictionary in attempting to record the history of some recent additions to the language, but, unlike the Supplement, it is necessarily very selective in the words, phrases, and meanings whose stories it sets out to tell and it stands as an independent work, unrelated (except in the resources it draws upon) to the Oxford English Dictionary. The aim of the Oxford Dictionary of New Words is to provide an informative and readable guide to about two thousand high-profile words and phrases which have been in the news during the past decade; rather than simply defining these words (as dictionaries of new words have tended to do in the past), it also explains their derivation and the events which brought them to prominence, illustrated by examples of their use in journalism and fiction. In order to do this, it draws on the published and unpublished resources of the Oxford English Dictionary, the research that is routinely carried out in preparing new entries for that work, and the word-files and databases of the Oxford Dictionary Department. What is a new word? This, of course, is a question which can never be answered satisfactorily, any more than one can answer the question "How long is a piece of string?" It is a commonplace to point out that the language is a constantly changing resource, growing in some areas and shrinking in others from day to day.

  • History of Sleeves Rawls Middle Ages (476AD – 1492) ▪ Early Medieval Sleeve Designs Were Generally Cut in One with the Garment, Not Set-In
    By Alyssa History of Sleeves Rawls Middle Ages (476AD – 1492) ▪ Early medieval sleeve designs were generally cut in one with the garment, not set-in. ▪ The sleeve of the outer tunic was cut fully; it could be short, elbow, three-quarter or full- length. ▪ If it was not full-length it displayed the wrist length under sleeve which was usually fitting. ▪ If it was long, it was often very wide and flaring at the wrist Italian Renaissance(14th – 17th century) ▪ In the fourteenth century the tightly-fitting sleeve was fashionable, with the outer tunic often ending at the elbow in a cuff and hanging tippets ▪ Fifteenth-century styles included the bishop sleeve, full and long and gathered into a tight wristband ▪ It also included the fuller bag or bagpipe sleeve, also fitting at the wrist, and the padded shoulder style Elizabethan (1558 – 1603) • In the 1560s and 1570s an upstanding puff sleeve was fashionable. • Trunk sleeves were very wide and excessive and because of this were a popular style of the upper class • Sleeves were banded at intervals creating puffs which in turn were padded and slashed to display linings and undergarments. French Neoclassical (18 - 19 century) • Eighteenth century sleeves for ladies' gowns were generally fitting to the elbow where they were finished by a deep cuff or, later, as funnel sleeves. • In the 1830s the puff sleeves became much larger developing into the leg-of-mutton sleeve, a style which was reintroduced in the 1890s. Also fashionable in the 1830s was the elephant sleeve • The mid-century style was usually wide and flaring at the bottom and only three-quarter or bracelet length Victorian (1837 – 1901) ▪ Bell sleeves came into fashion during the 1840s ▪ Dolman sleeves were closely fitted during much the Victorian era and were part of the military look in fashion.

  • Lining Techniques... Made Easy
    CT-MMB.004 Lining Techniques Jacket and Coat Linings Made Easy A garment lining is generally referred to and treated as a “supportive” fabric. As a rule, a lining eliminates the need for time-consuming seam finishes while lengthening the life and durability of the fashion garment. According to Kathleen Spike, noted clothing writer, “Nothing places a garment in the ‘custom’ or ‘couture’ category as distinctly as a professionally applied lining.” 1 Lining – a separate, but attached inner layer of fabric construction which conceals or covers the inside garment construction. STANDARDS OF A WELL-MADE/APPLIED GARMENT LINING A suitable lining fabric: Is compatible with garment fabric in terms of care and fiber content. It can be cleaned in the same manner as the garment. Can be either woven or knit fabric as long as it is compatible with the garment fashion fabric. Permits and accommodates the necessary “give” and recovery needed for body movement. Is firm, yet not bulky; colorfast to perspiration and body oils; absorbent or “breathable.” Is opaque so as not to see the inside construction of the garment. Matches or coordinates with the garment fashion fabric. Has a smooth surface texture to permit the garment to be taken on and off the body with ease. Weight is the same or somewhat lighter and softer than the fashion fabric so as not to dominate the fashion garment. Is preshrunk (pre-washed or dry-cleaned) prior to cutting. The completed lining: Is cut sufficiently larger than the fashion garment to provide length and width fitting ease (generally at center back, armhole, hem edge, elbow, sleeve hem, shoulder).
