They are easy to manipulate to either give the garment volume or exaggeration of certain aspects. The type of net you use would determine the photo credit: vera silhouette you aim for. This fabric is usually used vernerova @veravernerova to create sections of the garment or layered over www.veravernerova a sturdier fabric in order to cover the garment in ‘SHEER CHIC’ its entirety. It owes its popularity to the mystical makeup: zaron cosmetics aura that it generates when worn. Origin and History Garments with elements of net can be traced back to ancient India as well as western civilizations. While historically the origin of this fabric remains unclear, it is apparent that it has been used for centuries. In terms of ethnic fashion, the oldest net saree is traced to the pre-Mughal era. Net was used mostly by women in the court and as they gave away more and more of their belongings (as it was a custom to refrain from repeating garments), this style filtered into the sartorial choices of the common folk as well. Lace, which is considered a form of net, traces its origins to the Victorian Era. This was introduced to India during the British Empire and was worn when Indian women wanted to emulate the fashion styles of the British women. The Making of Net Fabric When creating this fabric, the yarns of thread are looped, knotted or fused only at their intersections. This helps create open spaces between the yarns. This is how net fabric gets its light, gauzy look. Style and variety There are many different types of net fabrics that are used in ethnic fashion. These are: Bobbinet This style of net is made with the help of hexagonal mesh. This enables the net to be very thin and transparent and is mostly used in bridal wear to add more fullness to the garment. Though it is very thin, this type of net can be found with stone or peal embellishments as the fabric is sturdy enough to support a few scattered adornments here and there. Tulle This is also a hexagonal mesh however, it is specially made from yarns of silk or nylon. As a result, this style of net tends to be stiffer than Bobbinet, albeit still as thin and transparent. Like Bobbinet, it is used to create an illusion of fullness, especially for bridal attire. Due to their similarities in creation and usage, most artisans club these two types under bobbinet. Fishnet This type of net is called this because it resembles a fisherman’s net. It is tied coarsely with larger openings in the yarn than its other counterparts. Filet Net This form of net is made with the help of a square mesh. The holes that are formed are, therefore, hexagonal in shape and have a very diaphanous look. Net Fabric can be used for a vast variety of applications. In ethnic fashion, it can be used to create sections of the saree, such as the pallu, and the dupatta of a salwar kameez set. In other cases, it can be used to create elements of the garment as opposed to the whole piece. For instance, it can be used as a layer over any other fabric to give the garment a fuller look. At the same time, it can be used to create aspects such as sleeves, a neckline, and hemline and so on. Innovations Apart from being used to create garments, this fabric is also used to create a variety of household décor items such as cushion covers, curtains, table cloths and, in certain cases, lampshades. These are used across the globe with varying frequency. Indian fashion designers and fashionistas have widely used the net fabric to showcase spectacular net sarees, kurta, and net lehenga choli designs. Interesting facts and trivia • The technique of making net fabric is also used to create hammocks, fisherman’s nets and in camping tents to create windows • Before 1809, all net fabrics were made by hand. After that year, a machine was invented that allowed people to create net in a easier way. • Several Bollywood actresses like Preity Zinta, Katrina Kaif, and Kareena Kapoor have donned various saris or dresses made out of the net fabric, which look beautiful and fashionable at the same time. • Fabrics like cotton, wool, and silk have also been in comparison with Net fabrics. However the westernized look along with the PRINT SILK ROBE WITH SILK PRINT TUNIC BY YELLOW NET DRESS BROWN STRIPED SILK SHIRT BY FUNKE ADEPOJU VELVET TRIMMING FUNKE ADEPOJU LANRE DA SILVA AJAYI traditional as well as comfort essence of this fabric makes it a BANKE KUKU SHEER GREEN PALAZZO JUMPSUIT BY winner.

  • An Appraisal of the State of Professional Songwriting
    AN APPRAISAL OF THE STATE OF PROFESSIONAL SONGWRITING ON THE NIGERIAN MUSIC INDUSTRY CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.0 Introduction Nelson (2010), making reference to a Music quote by Henry Giles, mentioned that “A song will outlive all sermons in the memory”. “Every song is like a painting”, Dale (2013) and every picture tells a story. Also, “Great music is that which penetrates the ear with facility and leaves the memory with difficulty because Magical music never leaves the memory”, Beecham (2015). Songwriting may mean different things to different songwriters and at different times. Songwriting, like any other creative endeavor, can be meaningful in a variety of ways. So while there are some objective ways to determine “good” or “bad” when it comes to songwriting, it is also a creative space open to a myriad of options. “A Creative mind has the ability to make discoveries and create innovations”, Rivera, (2014). 1.1 Background to the Study The American Heritage Dictionary of English language, 5thEdition, (2013) defines a songwriter as one who writes lyrics or tunes (or both). They are often referred to as ballad makers, tunesmiths, composers - someone who writes the lyrics and usually the Music of Songs. To some extent a songwriter is much like a storyteller and the listeners are his captive audience. Most songs revolve around a central theme such as love, friendship, struggle, triumph, or other forms of experiences, etc. Every song tells a different story while each song usually contains an atom or 1 atoms of uniqueness which makes them differ from the works of other composers and songwriters.

    FREE TO BE RUTH BADER GINSBURG THE STORY OF WOMEN AND LAW Ruth Bader Ginsburg as a college senior in 1954. 1 ONE LAWYER’S BEGINNINGS Nathan Bader was born in 1896 in a shtetl near Odessa in the Russian Empire, the kind of village immortalized in the work of Yiddish writer Sholem Aleichem and the musical Fiddler on the Roof. It was a place where life had continued unchanged for generations, where Jews—while sharing a village with Gentiles— largely governed themselves and lived separate lives. Nathan was nine years old when a violent series of pogroms broke out in the region, leaving thousands of Jews dead and many more homeless. That same year, the Baders decided there was no future for them in Imperial Russia. Nathan’s father left frst, journeying to the United States to earn passage for the rest of the family. Four years later, the rest of the family joined him, becoming part of the great migration that brought one and a half million Jews from Eastern Europe to America. They settled in New York’s Lower East Side, a crowded and gritty district packed with tenement buildings, synagogues, libraries, shops, department stores, and grocery stores. Known as a “notorious slum,”1 the capital of Jewish America, almost everything was Jewish-owned and Jewish-run—banks, shops, grocery stores, even the garment factories and department stores. By the time the Baders arrived, the district was packed with more than seven hundred people per acre, making it one of the most crowded neighborhoods in the world.
