Collection Design Theme Hereros Hereros Decked out in voluminous Victorian-style dresses, complete with horn-shaped headgear, the Herero ladies of Namibia have held on tight to a piece of 19th century history. The 'Ohorokova', the traditional Herero dress, is a permanent reminder of the tribe's unsettling past and history. Their cultural dress is a continued protest against the Germans who almost exterminated the entire tribe in the genocide of 1904. StitchKit StitchKit is a FashionTech kit created by MakeFashion It began as STEAM workshops, introducing people to technology through fashion StitchKit’s purpose is to reduce the barriers into technology and fashion Steampunk Steampunk fashion is a subgenre of the steampunk movement in science fiction. In the realm of fashion, a steampunk look is typically built on a Victorian silhouette, which means that women tend to wear corsets. Because of the centrality of Victorian design, steampunk can be considered a neo-Victorian movement. In other words, steampunk combines the Victorian with the new. Here’s what you’ll do! Create a miniature Fall/Winter 2019 Collection Create at least 4 runway ready looks– up to 6 Create a cohesive collection using the Herero women and Steampunk fashion as inspiration Your main neo-Victorian look must include StitchKit technology Pssst….

I would also like to thank Dr. Heather Jacobson and Dr. Kelly Bergstrand for their support as my thesis committee. Thank you all. i DEDICATION I would like to thank my family and friends who have supported me through this thesis project and my overall academic career. They have been there to bounce ideas off and complain to. Thank you for your interest in my work. ii ABSTRACT Pros and Cons: Anime Conventions and Cosplayers Angela Barajas, M.A. The University of Texas at Arlington, 2018 Supervising Professor: David Arditi Among the brightly-hued convention (con) halls, people dressed in feathers, foam armor, and spandex pose for pictures with one another as cosplayers. Cosplay is a way for fans to present themselves and their group to the fan community on a con-wide scale. Originally, I planned to investigate how cosplayers navigate their identities as cosplayers and as members of mainstream American society and how do these two identities inform each other. I sought to understand cosplayer’s identities as laborers within their cosplay groups. Using ethnographic research methods, I interviewed eleven participants and conducted participant observations.

Crafting Women’s Narratives The Material Impact of Twenty-First Century Romance Fiction on Contemporary Steampunk Dress Shannon Marie Rollins A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Art) at The University of Edinburgh Edinburgh College of Art, School of Art September 2019 Rollins i ABSTRACT Science fiction author K.W. Jeter coined the term ‘steampunk’ in his 1987 letter to the editor of Locus magazine, using it to encompass the burgeoning literary trend of madcap ‘gonzo’-historical Victorian adventure novels. Since this watershed moment, steampunk has outgrown its original context to become a multimedia field of production including art, fashion, Do-It-Yourself projects, role-playing games, film, case-modified technology, convention culture, and cosplay alongside science fiction. And as steampunk creativity diversifies, the link between its material cultures and fiction becomes more nuanced; where the subculture began as an extension of the text in the 1990s, now it is the culture that redefines the fiction.

  • Neo-Victorian Style in Twenty-First Century Subcultures
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by The University of Sydney: Sydney eScholarship Journals online Time Machine Fashion: Neo-Victorian Style in Twenty-First Century Subcultures Christine Feldman-Barrett In 1895 H.G. Wells presented readers with a novella that would become the standard bearer for all subsequent narratives concerned with time travel. In her 2005 introduction to The Time Machine, literary scholar Marina Warner describes Wells’s story as indicative of “an era of unsurpassed scientific discovery [when] many Victorian scientists were developing the technologies that would create the modern world” (xx). While earlier novels such as Samuel Butler’s Erewhon (1872) and William Morris’s News from Nowhere (1890) played with the notion of travelling backwards or forwards in time, The Time Machine truly emphasised the relationship between such temporal journeys and a particular object or vessel that would make them possible. While Wells’s story focuses on a trip to a distant, dystopian future, the time travel genre in contemporary popular culture texts have, instead, focused on travelling back and experiencing, if not trying to “correct”, the past. This is the case whether looking at past or present episodes of Dr. Who or now-classic films like Back to the Future (1985) or Peggy Sue Got Married (1986). In these narratives, characters do not passively observe events, but become immersed in them and hope to change them via the supposed clarity of hindsight. Like H.G. Wells’s iconic time machine itself, material objects have the ability to travel through time and become markers of the past (Gosden and Marshall 169).

  • Steampunk Transformation How I Went from a Historic Costumer to a Steampunk and Loved It
    Greater Bay Area Costumers Guild Volume 12, Number 4 July-August 2014 Steampunk Transformation How I went from a historic costumer to a Steampunk and loved it BY KORY DEAN DOYLE t has been said there are as many definitions of Steampunk as there are people who call themselves Steampunks. There are those who will tell you what it is and it isn’t as if they I are the only authority. There are others, however, that will say Steampunk is open to each person’s interpretation. I will share my own experiences coming into a movement that I once considered “cute” but wasn’t as “accurate” as historical, to becoming enthralled with it, and finding my own definition Steampunk style. Background I have been doing historical and science fiction costuming for 33 years. I began at 16 (you do the math) at the original Renaissance Pleasure Faire in Agoura, California. (Trust me, you don’t want to see my very first Photo courtesy attempt!) I started with Elizabethans, both middle-class www.SimoneAtcelli.com and courtly dress. Other periods include Saxon, Viking, English Medieval, Caviler, Restoration (and of course) Victorian and Edwardian; as well as science fiction costumes (Star Trek, Babylon Five, Star Wars, Doctor Who) and comic superheros. Under costumer guild rules, I can compete as a master level costumer. I have run masquerades at Gallifrey One and at Loscon. I was Photo courtesy LunaGrafix.com nominated for Best-Dressed Steampunk Male by the Steampunk Chronicle Reader’s Poll in 2013 and won in 2014. I organized and ran a Steampunk fashion show for Clockwork Alchemy that received rave reviews not just for the innovative fashions shown, but the use of models of varying ages, sizes and ethnicities.
