  • Results and Discussion 83 RESULTS and DISCUSSION the Interest That Indian Women Showed in Ornamentation and Aesthetic Expression
    Results and Discussion RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The interest that Indian women showed in ornamentation and aesthetic expression through their costumes has been documented well. It is pertinent to understand the messages that they conveyed through their sartorial preferences which is documented in various forms sculptures, scriptures, literature, paintings, costume archives, cinema, media –advertisements and magazines etcetera. Each community and ethnic group maintained unique characteristics, which become symbols of recognition and identification and served to establish their cultural affiliation. Central to this was the Indian woman who was the symbol of patriarchal society. She combined both the functions of being the nurturer and protector of her household and cultural ethos of the society. The woman was as important part as the man; of the Indian society, which embraced both the indoor and outdoor roles within the social- cultural paradigms of the community. The span of evolution of Indian women’s costume, especially the draped version, the sari has undergone immense changes, however to interpret the semiology of the era bygone is rather complex; as one can attempt to understand and decode the tacit meaning through the lens of current observation only. Since the people who shared the ancient set of rules or code for contextual reading that enables us to connect the signifier with the signified are not present, this will prove to be delimiting. The Indian fashion scene began receiving its due credibility and attention from 1980’s onwards and gained the industry recognition in 21st century: hence this research focuses on new millennium to understand the Indian Fashion System.

    The Missouri Historic Costume and Textile Collection presents FASHIONING A COLLECTION: 50 Years 50 Objects March 7 – May 20, 2017 State Historical Society of Missouri Gallery FASHIONING A COLLECTION: 50 YEARS, 50 OBJECTS Missouri Historic Costume and Textile Collection Department of Textile and Apparel Management College of Human Environmental Sciences University of Missouri State Historical Society of Missouri FASHIONING A COLLECTION: 50 YEARS, 50 OBJECTS Curated by Nicole Johnston and Jean Parsons The Missouri Historic Costume and Textile Collection was established in 1967 by Carolyn Wingo to support the teaching mission of the Department of Textile and Apparel Management within the College of Human Environmental Sciences at the University of Missouri. MHCTC received its first donation of artifacts from the Kansas City Museum in Kansas City, Missouri and has grown to include over 6,000 items of apparel, accessories and household textiles donated by alumni, faculty and friends. Curator Laurel Wilson guided and nurtured the collection for over half of the Collection’s fifty years, and today, the MHCTC collects and preserves clothing and textiles of historic and artistic value for purposes of teaching, research, exhibition and outreach. This exhibit celebrates the variety and mission of the collection, and is thus organized by the three branches of that mission: education, research and exhibition. It was a challenge to choose only 50 objects as representative. We have chosen those objects most frequently used in teaching and are student favorites, as well as objects used in research by undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and visiting scholars. Finally, favorites from past exhibits are also included, as well as objects and new acquisitions that have never been previously exhibited.

  • Evening Gowns and Canadian Designer Ruth Dukas
    Ruth Dukas brocade evening gown, ca. 1963. Ryerson FRC2013.02.001. EVENING GOWNS & CANADIAN DESIGNER RUTH DUKAS By Dr. Ingrid Mida Ruth Dukas (b.1929) is a retired Canadian fashion designer who in the 1960s was well known across North America for her evening wear designs with their October 29, 2013 luxurious beading and embroidery. This pale yellow, green and pink brocade evening gown by Ruth Dukas with banded beaded collar and beaded trim down the front of the dress and a bow at the bust-line is lined in silk. The Ruth Dukas label is now largely unknown, except amongst those who keep these finely crafted gowns from the 1960s in the back of their closet as treasured memories of a special event. 1 Ruth Dukas brocade Although Ruth Dukas was an award-winning designer who exported her evening gown, ca. 1963. fashions to the United States, little has been written about Ruth Dukas and her Ryerson FRC2013.02.001. place in Canadian fashion industry. In April 2011, I conducted an oral history Collar detail. interview with Ruth for the Royal Ontario Museum archives, supplemented that interview with correspondence with Ruth by email, and also examined newspaper and magazine clippings, photos, letters and telegrams from Ruth’s personal archive. I have also examined a handful of garments designed by her (Seneca College Fashion Resource Centre has several) and also kept in touch with Ruth, who recently shared her personal archive of sketches and other photos with me. Ruth, was the daughter of a sample maker and grew up in Toronto, attending Ryerson Public School and then Central Tech high school from 1942-1946 where she studied art (the painter Doris McCarthy was one of her teachers).
