The main focus of this research is to understand social conventions and (he changing meanings of fashicm reflected in the accounts of controversies in relation to women's lives during the period. Controversial issues are categorized into three thanes including body exposure, femininity versus masculinity, and extravagance versus thrift and conservation. Fashion theories are introduced in chapter one to enhance the understanding of fashicm adoption and its changing meanings. Chapter two is devoted to the discussions of controversies about women's exposure of calves, arms and necks, the boyish look in mainstream fashion, women's adoption of knickerbockers, and the extravagance in women's fashion appearing in primary sources published between 1920 and 1929. Chapter three focuses on controversial issues such as women's adoption of abbreviated leisure wear including bathing suits, shorts and halters, the tensicm between femininity and masculinity embedded in women's corsets and trousers, the ironical economic condition not only demanding more consumption but also conservation during the Depression years between 1930 and 1939. The accounts of controversies about the shorter and narrower style of dresses, women's adoption of trousers, and the necessity of thrift and conservation are discussed in relation to World War n in chapter fbun The changing meanings of fashions between 1920 and 1945 are reviewed in the conclusion in light of fashion theories, including the collective selection theory, ambivalence theory, and aesthetic perspectives of fashion adoption theory. 1 1. INTRODUCTION Research Focus PaulNystmn^inhisbookEaTnomfcs^fWwbn, de&iedfMiion as "the prevailing style at any given time."^ TTiis definition of fashion has been elaborated over time, and fashicm today is generaHy defined as'The stykacœptedby the majcmty of agroup at aparticular time andplace.'^ However, fashicm is not just understood as a phenomenon but often understood as a "pmcess-onented phenomenon." According to George Spmles, "(he Wùcmpmcess is adynamic mechanism of change through which a potential fashion object is transmitted from its point of creation to public introduction, discernible public acceptance, and eventual obsolescence." He described the life-cycle of fashion in six phases: invention and introducticm, fashion leadership, increasing social visibility, confcxmity within and across social groups, social saturation, and decline and obsolescence? As a new style of fashion is introduced to society and moves through the life-cycle of fashion, a variety of opinions and restrictions arises within society. In this dissertation, I will examine the contrasting opinions about and social regulations of American women's fashicm that appeared in 77# TVew^rkTZmasandavariety of magazines published between 1920 and 1945. The change in opinions and restrictions on changing fashions reflects the change in social convoitions and the meanings of fashions in relation to women's lives during Été period. Rrst, I will review some major theories on fashicm adoption and the change of its meanings, in order to enhance the understanding of fashion change and the controversies during the period. 2 Fashion theories One of the classical theories of fashion change is Geoig Simmers trickle-down theory. Simmel recognized imitation and demarcation as two fundamental "psychological tendencies" which serve as undedying motive power in fashicm change. According to his explanation, it is an instinctive human desire to attain higher social position, and the desire is often expressed by adopting upper clœs symbols including its fashion. Therefore, when the highest class establishes a new style of fashion, the succeeding lower class imitates it. The upper class fashion is sequentially copied down the social dass ladder until it readies the lowest class. The highest class then adopts anew fashicm in order to differentiate themselves from the succeeding lower classes only to be copied by the succeeding lower class again/* However, Charles King challenged the trickle-down theory and suggested the mass-market or trickle-across theory. He pointed out the fact that the development of mass media brought fast and wide circulation of information on new styles in postindustrial society. Moreover, ample availability of material made kpossibk for manufacturer to o&r new styles of fashion fŒ each class at different price levels. Therefore, a new fashion is introduced to the different social classes almost simultaneously to be diffused across each social class? On the other hand, subcultural styles can trickk-up to the mass population mainly due to the subcultural group's "creativity, artistic excellence, or relevance to current life-styles."* George Field discussed "the status float phenomenon" with examples such as black American hair styles, African

  • How Fashion Invades the Concert Stage
    MPA 0014 HOW FASHION INVADES THE CONCERT STAGE by MAUD POWELL Published in Musical America December 26, 1908 The amateur who dreams of a life of fame in music, has one of two ideas about her future work. If she has talent and personality, she fancies that her playing alone will bring the desired recognition; if artistic and fond of dress, she has visions of beautiful gowns trailing behind her on the concert platform, producing a picture of harmony and elegance. Both pictures have other sides, however. For dress plays almost as important a part in the concert as the talent itself and becomes, as the season progresses, a veritable “Old Man of the Sea.” The professional woman owes it to her public to dress fashionably, for the simple gowns of former years have passed into obscurity and with the increased importance of dress in everyday life, it has spread into all professions, until the carelessly dressed woman or one whose clothes are hopelessly old fashioned has no place in the scheme of things. The business woman receives much help from the fashion periodicals; the mother of a large family is also reached and it is possible for many persons to procure ready-made clothing, thus obviating the necessity of shopping and fitting. Valuable as these two are in the acquiring of an up-to-date wardrobe, they help the musician but little. It is absolutely essential that she have a certain style and individuality in the selection of her gowns, particularly those which must be worn before a critical audience.

  • Girls Gone Wild: the Flapper Dress by Doris M. Benavides 2
    GIRLS GONE WILD: THE FLAPPER DRESS BY DORIS M. BENAVIDES 2ND PLACE FRESHMAN CATEGORY The Flapper Dress was considered a symbol of sexual liberation during the Roaring 20’s. The artifact this essay will center upon is an iris colored flapper dress made out of silk and cotton, decorated with lace bedazzled with pearls and thick fabric. The owner of this dress is unknown. This dress is currently being held in the Museum of Southern History. At a glance, this piece might seem as any other dress from a time personally unknown to contemporary generations. However, the flapper dress became one of the arms the defying women of the 1920’s used to make their mark in American history. In previous generations, women were taught to speak softly, carry lipstick, and wear their hair down. Through the impact of the flapper girls, those days became history. To begin with, the 1920’s were a period in American history that incorporated the fastest economic expansion in United States history, a new source of values, modernism, and a crash that changed the outlook of the United States until this day. The economy of the time incorporated rising stock prices, corporate profits, personal income, and gross domestic product (GDP). During this time, automobiles became largely available, movies, invented in the 1880’s, made debuts, dance music included jazz, and young, modern women joined the provocative culture of the time. Fashion played a crucial role during this time, and women were no longer content having to wear layers upon layers of clothing, nor long haircuts that became burdensome.

  • History and Drafting of Hose By: Adelheid Holtzhauer
    History and Drafting of Hose By: Adelheid Holtzhauer Introduction Leg coverings of some sort have been worn throughout history by both men and women. For the purposes of this class, the hose we will be looking at are fitted, closed footed and made of woven fabric. There are many garments called Hose and Hosen worn throughout history. Extant examples have been found dating back to the 2nd century such as the footed hose found a Martres-de- Veyre. Image 1: Womens woollen twill hose excavated at Martres-de-Veyre Although there are many different garments that could be referred to as hose, in this class we will be focusing on "Single Hose" and "Attached Hose". Single hose cover one leg and can vary in length/height. Attached hose are essentially tight fitted trews. Over the course of time, single hose went from knee length and gartered with trim, to full fitted "pants" to thigh high and attached with to a belt at the waist, to detached and gartered under the knee to the full legging style common in the late 161h century. Image 2 shows a pair of attached hose which are carbon dated to 1355 AD and were found in the Damendorf Bog.

Early 1850 bodices had a Basque opening over a che- misette, the bodice continued to be very close fitting, the waist sharp and the shoulder less slanted, during the 1850s to 1866. During the 1850s the dresses were cut without a waist seam and during the 1860s the round waist was raised to some extent. The decade of the 1870s is one of the most intricate era of women’s fashion. The style of the early 1870s relied on the renewal of the polonaise, strained on the back, gath- ered and puffed up into an detailed arrangement at the rear, above a sustaining bustle, to somewhat broaden at the wrist.
