Appreciating the value of cloth was taken for granted for much of the #c19th. This luminous floral brocade comes from a much earlier garment of the #c18th but was #refashioned into a different style sometime perhaps half a century later. @JBCollection_uk#fashionhistory
Often overlooked in favor of the dominating “la garçonne” or flapper look of the 1920s, this Robe de Style by Jeanne Lanvin shows another one of the most popular styles of women’s dress during the decade. Read more! fashionhistory.fitnyc.edu/1920-1929/
If your evening consists of a rollicking party complete with music & dancing & a general knees up then hurrah! If it is more in the vein of a cosy film, wrapped in a blanket then also hurrah! Either way this mid #1920s evening dress is a lovely accompaniment @philamuseum
British designer John Cavanagh brought all of the rococo flair to this late #1950s evening dress, paniers swooping from either hip and a rosy bow adorning the skirt. It demands a balmy early summer evening with a long cool drink and twilight birdsong on the air @Fashion_Museum
Gauzy white puff sleeves feature both in this surviving #1820s dress and a slightly earlier fashion plate, drawing on Gothic fictions and Tudor aesthetics here. Self decorated hems and gathered bodices are replicated too, from image to object @KSUMuseum#fashionhistory
There is still time to sign up for this Sunday’s lovely At Home, a short but cosy interlude and a chance to hear some wonderful c19th dress and textile research

My photo memories have reminded me that it was five years ago today since the #Dior show @V_and_A and a most gorgeous spin around the galleries. It was otherworldly and beautiful and seems like a lifetime ago now #fashionhistory
Research is taking me down the rabbit hole of shoemakers, those men & women who cut, shaped & stitched footwear that ended up on royal feet. Stories such as Keturah Daveney’s are endlessly fascinating, reading about her work at H&M Rayne in 1909. Some 1920s glam @V_and_A
Louise Dahl-Wolfe photographed #Dior’s 1951 l’Autriche gown with its sculpted lines and two tones of fabric in typical mid century pose. A sleek and chic dress to help us over the middle week bump @ROMtoronto#chinasilkmuseum#fashionhistory

Very happy with the new acquisition at our Textile Conservation Library thanks to a generous donation. A late 19 century swatch book registering the synthetic dye industry in Europe (Germany). We love those donations THANK YOU 😊
As picnics have ice more become a possibility, this outdoor ensemble is poised to venture forth. A white polka dotted suit is not, perhaps, the most practical option for lounging outdoors on lush grass but it certainly cuts a dash. Mid #1890s@FIDMMuseum#fashionhistory
It was on this day in 1932 that the designer Roy Frowick Halston was born. His label, #Halston, became synonymous with #1970s glamour. Especially known for his bright colours, this is a different, all black affair, a halter neck swoosh of silk @metmuseum#fashionhistory
There are a few more days available to submit an abstract for our summer #conference The Beach and Beyond exploring dress, textile and costume practices in and around coastal areas. The wearing of 1930s beach pyjamas is entirely optional @FalmouthUni#goldsteinmuseum#cfp

Do not be fooled by the apparent looseness of fit and flow presented by the outward appearance of this #1880s aesthetic gown. Peep within and there is a close fitting under bodice shaping the waist and helping to construct the silhouette #wisconsinhistoricalsociety
Jeanne #Lanvin designed this austere evening gown in 1934. The ivory crepe is all innocence whilst the lamé shoulder cape and belt hints at something exciting ahead @madparisfr#fashionhistory
There is still time to nab a copy of The Dress Diary of Mrs Anne Sykes as a 99p ebook until the end of April. When I see dresses as exuberant as this #1860s piece, I picture Anne & her friends in similarly bold choices given the vibrancy of swatches in her album @NewfieldsToday
