    Cloth, Fashion and Revolution 'Evocative' Garments and a Merchant's Know-How: Madame Teillard, Dressmaker at the Palais-Ro

    CLOTH, FASHION AND REVOLUTION ‘EVOCATIVE’ GARMENTS AND A MERCHANT’S KNOW-HOW: MADAME TEILLARD, DRESSMAKER AT THE PALAIS-ROYAL By Professor Natacha Coquery, University of Lyon 2 (France) Revolutionary upheavals have substantial repercussions on the luxury goods sector. This is because the luxury goods market is ever-changing, highly competitive, and a source of considerable profits. Yet it is also fragile, given its close ties to fashion, to the imperative for novelty and the short-lived, and to objects or materials that act as social markers, intended for consumers from elite circles. However, this very fragility, related to fashion’s fleeting nature, can also be a strength. When we speak of fashion, we speak of inventiveness and constant innovation in materials, shapes, and colours. Thus, fashion merchants become experts in the fleeting and the novel. In his Dictionnaire universel de commerce [Universal Dictionary of Trade and Commerce], Savary des Bruslons assimilates ‘novelty’ and ‘fabrics’ with ‘fashion’: [Fashion] […] It is commonly said of new fabrics that delight with their colour, design or fabrication, [that they] are eagerly sought after at first, but soon give way in turn to other fabrics that have the charm of novelty.1 In the clothing trade, which best embodies fashion, talented merchants are those that successfully start new fashions and react most rapidly to new trends, which are sometimes triggered by political events. In 1763, the year in which the Treaty of Paris was signed to end the Seven Years’ War, the haberdasher Déton of Rue Saint-Honoré, Paris, ‘in whose shop one finds all fashionable merchandise, invented preliminary hats, decorated on the front in the French style, and on the back in the English manner.’2 The haberdasher made a clear and clever allusion to the preliminary treaty, signed a year earlier.

    Women's Clothing in the 18Th Century

    National Park Service Park News U.S. Department of the Interior Pickled Fish and Salted Provisions A Peek Inside Mrs. Derby’s Clothes Press: Women’s Clothing in the 18th Century In the parlor of the Derby House is a por- trait of Elizabeth Crowninshield Derby, wearing her finest apparel. But what exactly is she wearing? And what else would she wear? This edition of Pickled Fish focuses on women’s clothing in the years between 1760 and 1780, when the Derby Family were living in the “little brick house” on Derby Street. Like today, women in the 18th century dressed up or down depending on their social status or the work they were doing. Like today, women dressed up or down depending on the situation, and also like today, the shape of most garments was common to upper and lower classes, but differentiated by expense of fabric, quality of workmanship, and how well the garment fit. Number of garments was also determined by a woman’s class and income level; and as we shall see, recent scholarship has caused us to revise the number of garments owned by women of the upper classes in Essex County. Unfortunately, the portrait and two items of clothing are all that remain of Elizabeth’s wardrobe. Few family receipts have survived, and even the de- tailed inventory of Elias Hasket Derby’s estate in 1799 does not include any cloth- ing, male or female. However, because Pastel portrait of Elizabeth Crowninshield Derby, c. 1780, by Benjamin Blythe.

This recommended commer- cial standard was not officially accepted, but was made available for distribution upon request. The standing committee reviewed subse- quent comment, and prepared a revised draft, which was circulated for written acceptance on October 28, 1938. This draft was accepted by a large portion of the trade. After further review and considera- tion, a sufficient number of signed acceptances were received from manufacturers, distributors, and users to justify promulgation by the United States Department of Commerce, through the National Bureau of Standards. The standard is effective for new production from July 15, 1946. Promulgation recommended. F. W. Reynolds, Acting Chief, Division of Trade Standards. Promulgated. E. U.

    Hostess Without the Mostess by Reg P. Wydeven

    Hostess without the Mostess By Reg P. Wydeven November 28, 2012 When I was a kid, it seemed everyone had a cute mascot that promoted their message. There were the cereal mascots: Tony the Tiger, Cap’n Crunch, Cuckoo the Bird, Digg’em the Frog, The Trix Rabbit and the Honey-Nut Cheerios Bee. Then there was Charlie the Tuna, Woodsy the Owl, Smokey the Bear, and the Jolly Green Giant. My personal favorite, however, was Twinkie the Kid. Twinkie the Kid was an oblong cream-filled cake who wore a cowboy hat and boots, a kerchief and brandished a lasso. I can’t imagine what he would try to catch with his lasso and he probably didn’t fare well under the Western sun, but I still thought he was cool. Unfortunately, Twinkie the Kid may be put out to pasture. Last week a federal bankruptcy judge approved Hostess Brands, the manufacturers of Twinkies, winding down its business and selling all of its assets. The Irving, Texas-based company claims that its “inflated cost structure” put it at a competitive disadvantage. The cause of the inflated cost structure allegedly stems from collective bargaining agreements covering 15,000 of its employees. These employees belong to the Hostess’ second biggest union, the Bakery, Confectionary, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union. The snack manufacturer released a statement saying, “Hostess Brands is winding down the company after a nationwide strike initiated by the BCTGM that commenced on November 9 crippled its operations at a time when the company lacked the financial resources to survive a significant labor action.” Hostess has been paying almost $1 million a day in wages without any income since it halted operations last week.
