NELLY DON’S 1916 PINK GINGHAM APRON FROCK: AN ILLUSTRATION OF THE MIDDLE-CLASS AMERICAN HOUSEWIFE’S SHIFTING ROLE FROM PRODUCER TO CONSUMER by MIKYOUNG WHANG M.A., California State University, Los Angeles, 1997 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Apparel, Textiles, and Interior Design College of Human Ecology KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2011 Abstract Nell Donnelly created a stylish, practical, affordable pink gingham apron frock in 1916, selling out her first order of 216 dresses the first morning at $1 apiece at Peck’s Dry Goods Company in Kansas City. This study investigates the forces behind the success of her dress, and finds that during the early 20th century, woman’s role became modernized, shifting from that of producer to consumer, and that clothing—in particular, the housedress—was a visible reflection of this shift. Specific attributes contributed to the success of the apron frock in design and social perspective. First, her housedress incorporated current design elements including kimono sleeves, empire waistline, waist yoke, asymmetrical front closure, and ruffle trimmings sensibly. Socially, mass advertising and mass media articles promoted fashion consciousness in women to look as pretty as those in the ad or article. As a result, integrating trendy design elements into an affordable housedress along with the growing demand for a stylish, yet practical housedress guaranteed the success of Nelly Don’s pink gingham apron frock. As such, the availability and value of the apron frock provide a vivid illustration of woman’s shifting role: its popularity as an alternative to old-fashioned Mother Hubbard housedresses demonstrates both women’s new consumer awareness as well as their growing involvement in the public sphere.

Using a methodology based on Judith Butler’s gender theory, it examines how femininity is perceived and presented and argues that clothes are essential to female characterisation and both the perpetuation and breakdown of gender stereotypes.

Lavender’s Green makes clothing for people who reenact the past. You will meet the public with confidence, knowing that you present an ac- curate picture of your historic era. If you volunteer at historic sites or participate in festivals, home tours, or other historic-based activities, you’ll find that the right clothing—comfortable, well made, and accu- rate in details—will add so much to the event. Use this catalog as a guide in planning your period clothing. For most time periods, we show a work dress, or “house dress.” These would have been worn for everyday by servants, shop girls, and farm wives across America. We also show at least one Sunday gown or “best” dress, which a middle-class woman would save for church, weddings, parties, photos, and special events. Throughout the catalog you will see drawings of hats and bonnets. Each one is individually designed and hand-made; please ask for a bid on a hat to wear with your new clothing. Although we do not show children’s clothing on most of these pages, we can design and make authentic clothing for your young people for any of these time periods. Generally, these prices will be 40% less than the similar adult styles. The prices given are for a semi-custom garment with a dressmaker- quality finish.
  • General Information

    General Information

    General Information: Summer dresses, made from lightweight fabric like silk organza or printed cotton, were popular during the time of the early bustle era from 1869-1876 for excursions to the sea or sporting activities like tennis. Hence the name “seaside costume” comes. Beside strong and light colors also striped fabrics were popular. Striped fabric often was cut on the bias for ruches and decorations to create lovely patterns. At the beginning of the era skirts were supported by smaller crinolines with an additional bustle at the back. At the middle of the seventies the crinoline was displaced by the actual tournure or “Cul de Paris”. Information’s about the sewing pattern: A seam allowance of 5/8” (1,5cm) is included, except other directions directly on the sewing pattern. Transfer all marks carefully when cutting the fabric. Pleas always do a mockup first. To get the desired shape the dress should be worn over a corset and suitable underpinnings. The dress is intended to be worn for more sporting activities, so it is designed to be worn over a small to a medium size bustle pad. If you want to wear the dress over a small crinoline or a larger bustle you have to spread the back width of the skirt to the hip era. Plan to make two or three pleats into the skirt gore #2 and #3 at the hip section. The front waist piece and the front apron are cut as one piece, at the side and the back the apron pieces are sewn on and folded into regular pleats at the back.
  • Rando – Introducing the World's First Ski Suit in 3-Layer Gore-Tex® Active

    Rando – Introducing the World's First Ski Suit in 3-Layer Gore-Tex® Active

    Press release February 2013 Rando – introducing the world’s first ski suit in 3-layer Gore-Tex® Active Perhaps the secret of Randonée lies in the contrast of struggling up the mountain only to later enjoy the ride down. Perhaps it is the science of finding snow that no one else has broken before. Or perhaps just to enjoy the vast landscape. Regardless of the reason, the activity places special demands on the equipment. For the 2013 winter season Haglöfs is introducing a new extensive collection for skiers who want to explore far away from the lift system and pistes. All of these products, which are gathered under the RANDO family, were developed with a focus on safety and being able to quickly and easily adapt the clothing based on changing weather conditions or whether you are headed up or down the mountain. One of this year’s big releases is RANDO AS SUIT – the world’s first ski suit in 3-layer Gore-Tex® Active. During its product development stage, Haglöfs focused on taking advantage of the properties of Gore’s Active technology in order to be able to offer the lightest and the most comfortable, waterproof and breathable skiing garment on the market. RANDO AS SUIT has an unembellished design, but with all of the product features a skier would expect, such as a helmet-compatible, adjustable 3-way hood, a DWR-treated outer surface and pockets strategically placed so that they are accessible even when carrying a backpack. The suit also has long, reinforced and waterproof zippers at the armpits and along the thighs in order to maximize ventilation.
  • Cotehardie Construction from Extant Pieces

    Cotehardie Construction from Extant Pieces

    Cotehardie Construction from Extant Pieces Mistress Mairghead de Chesholme [email protected] Mka Jacquelyne Aubuchon Uppsala gown reconstruction http://www.kostym.cz/Anglicky/1_Originaly/01_Goticke/I_01_13.htm Very few examples of clothing from the High Middle Ages have survived to the present day. Of those garments, even fewer are available for study to the amateur costumer. Marc Carlson’s website “Some Clothing of the Middle Ages” provides an invaluable resource for the costumer to find garments with which to make comparisons. For this examination, I have selected five garments for comparison. These garments include the Soderkoping kirtle, Herjolfnes No. 42, Herjolfnes No. 39, Herjolfnes No. 38, and the Uppsala gown. The Herjolfnes garments immediately precede the cotehardie in fashion, but are not necessarily cotes. What they show is a continuity of cut and style that can arguably be carried over to application in construction of cotehardies. For example, think of a man’s dress shirt. Envision the places where the seams lie on a modern shirt. One hundred years ago, the technology was radically different, but the seams will correspond on a man’s shirt from the 1800’s. Clothing construction is constantly tweaked, skirts get longer and shorter, dresses range from fitted to volumous, but the basic lines for seams remain the same. By utilizing what is known on the above five garments one can reasonably reproduce a cotehardie using a pattern that would have been plausible at the time. Soderkoping Kirtle http://personal.utulsa.edu/~marc-carlson/cloth/soder.html The first garment and most degraded of the five is the Soderkoping kirtle.

  • Retro House Dress Apron

    Retro House Dress Apron

    MS. DIOR’S Retro House Dress Apron by Trish Vernazza 1952 was the year of “double-duty” fashion. !is was a reflection of the economy, the drab aftermath of the deprivations of World War II, and the need for practically. Women desired fashionable, flirty, and sophisticated styles in their wardrobe. !ere was a need for a combination of sweaters, skirts, and blouses to create a larger wardrobe along with a staple of day dresses. !e housedress served both as a cover-up and a dressing gown. Worn in the day and removed before early evening, they were a necessary staple for household chores or running out to do daily errands. Made out of simple, washable fabrics, they still needed to be feminine, stylish, and easy to put on and remove. Some housedresses even came with a matching oven glove! Ultra-feminine designs abounded that showcased tiny waists, huge skirts, and rounded shoulders. Christian Dior was, at the time, the most famous couturier that established Paris as the leader of world fashion. On a Paris street, a well-dressed young woman in a copy of Dior’s New Look had the clothes nearly torn off her body by enraged housewives. When it was time to create a new collection, Christian Dior had a ritual: He would retreat to his garden and sit among the flowers. !is is where he would sketch out his designs, inspired by what was blooming. As Dior once said, “Elegance must be the right combination of distinction, naturalness, care, and simplicity.” Other designers wanted to shock, to impress, to dress the working woman, or to pursue an artistic ideal.
