Jackets. Jackets in silk, wool, linen, wines, plums, gold, waist-long, and thigh-long. Women felt empowered to wear jackets of all sorts. Since they could be worn with anything, they were workday and weekday accessories. (So that is where Matt Young gets it.) Most of the fashions in 1989 came from such companies as Polo and Calvin Klein. European based Chri...
The attire of the period had variants sometimes when it came to age, social class, economic position, and even job placement. These factors made a difference in style of clothing, style of sleeves, choice of fabric, and amount of fabric used in a garment. A rich woman might buy very expensive brocade for her dress where a poorer woman might simply buy a singular colored wool or cotton. When the war arrived, cotton and silk increased, making it harder to obtain (Mitchell 4). It was these fabrics; wool, silk, muslin, linen, etc., that made the weight of the whole outfit so heavy and awkward.

Humanity, since the dawn of time, fears anything they have little knowledge about. Instead, humans create superstitious beliefs based on fear and curiosity. In Shirley Jackson’s We Have Always Lived in the Castle, Constance Blackwood, Mary Katherine, Merricat, Blackwood, and Julian Blackwood are a wealthy family that live just outside the town. Six years ago, the rest of the Blackwood family is murdered at the dinner table with arsenic. The townspeople blame Constance because she cooks the food for the family and is an expert with herbs, but she is acquitted of the murder. Despite being acquitted, the townspeople abuse both Constance and Merricat simply because they believe that Constance was the only one who could have killed the family.

On the twenty-first of August, our Wearable History class took a trip to downtown Bowling Green, to visit Mosaic Confinement Studio. The studio had an old-fashioned vibe, and was like a vintage-garment haven. There, we were asked to choose a piece that we thought was vintage, identify the time period it actually came from, and also take some additional notes on the style and the garment’s details. After searching through multiple racks, the first piece I found was a lace blazer. It turned out to only be vintage-inspired, so I went searching again. I came across a few other pieces, but nothing was really jumping out at me. Eventually, I came across a lavender dress that immediately made me think of Julia Roberts in “Mystic Pizza”, and I knew I found my garment.
Mr.Lauren had more dreams to fulfill. He chose the name Polo for his line of ties because the sport repsented to him a lifestyle of athletic grace and discreet elegance, an image of men who wore well-tailored, classic clothes and wore them with style. With that image in mind, Mr Lauren established Polo as a separate menswear company in 1968, producing a complete line of men's clothes. Using only the finest fabrications, Mr. Lares's menswear was distinctive, innovative, but always classic and refined. His suits blended the American Ivy League natural shoulder silhouette with the fitted shape and expensive fabrics of the best European custom tailored clothing. His shirts were all cotton, richly patterned and expertly made. This same care was, and still is, applied to every element of...

Pantalettes, sometimes indicated major transitions in a girl's life signifying the going forward from infant to schoolgirl. From 1350 to mid 1500s, real fashion started to appear, as clothes were tailored to display the figure. During the 1700s, the Age of Enlightenment, ladies dressed in voluminous draped fabrics putting on a few more pounds. Tightly laced corsets were used in the bodices of their gowns, and hoops worn under their dresses, were made of flexible whalebone (a thin plastic strip used in stiffening corsets and bodices) held together by tapes (Fig. 1). During the industrial revolution in the 1800s, French designs dominated women's clothing, and women discarded the corset in favor of a softly bodice. Gowns were made with fewer layers and had leg-of-mutton sleeves (Fig. 2). In the 1870s, synthetic dyes were introduced due to the fact that they were cheaper and color-fast. Toward the 1900s, the Space Age, fashion quickly moved forward into the 20th century. By the end of the 19th-century, the fashion industry had broadened, partly due to the demand of women who had a more independent life style. In 1910, rayon was invented, the first man made fabric that substituted silk. Also, for the first time, hemlines rise above the ankles. During the early 20th century, nearly all high fashion originated in Paris and London. Fashion magazines from other countries sent editors and department stores sen...
