KEYNOTE PANELTuesday, March 13th, 4:30-6:00pm

We are excited to announce a keynote panel atthis year’s symposium. This panel will highlightthe rich information that can emerge whencolleagues make connections. This panel willinclude four dress historians from ColonialWilliamsburg: Gretchen Guidess, Conservator ofTextiles; Neal Hurst, Associate Curator ofCostume and Textiles; Brenda Rosseau, Managerof the Costume Design Center; and JaneaWhitacre, Mistress Milliner and Mantua-maker.Linda Baumgarten, Independent Scholar andEmerita Curator, Colonial Williamsburg, andSarah Woodyard, Journeywoman, Millinery andMantua-maker, will make introductions. Thispanel seeks to make connections between thedifferent dress disciplines practiced at ColonialWilliamsburg, using the printed cotton gown(accession #2004-97) from the ColonialWilliamsburg’s costume collection as the locus ofthe discussion. The panel will delve intoquestions such as: what is the genealogy of thisgown? How can we best mount a gown thatsurvives without its original sleeves? What is thedifference between a reproduction and anadaptation? What stories does the gown tellabout the original maker and wearer?

WORKSHOPSWednesday, March 14th

9:00 – 12:00

“It’s All the Fashion Now”: Make a Regency-era Wired Turban-- $20/$25 after January31st, limit 15 participantsTonya Staggs, Historic Travellers Rest

In 1799, Jane Austen wrote a letter to her sister Cassandra stating that she was to wear herMameluke cap to a ball… “It is all the fashion now; worn at the opera and by Lady Mildmays atHackwood balls.” The “cap” she referred to was indeed a turban, and the fashion for them wouldcontinue many years after Jane’s experiment with the new Mameluke style. Turbans remainedpopular throughout the Regency period and into the 1830s, periodically seeing resurgence, butperhaps never regaining the unmistakable elegance and flair that defined them in the early 19thcentury. Join us for a workshop to learn how to make a Regency-style wired turban. No turban tyingis necessary, as this style is sewn to a wired form so it can be worn with the same ease as a hat. Thiswired style of “turban” was utilized by Sarah Polk in the 1840s and would continue into the early20th century with only slight modifications. Workshop participants will receive a pre-constructedwire and buckram frame and from there will learn how to construct this simple piece into a turban.Along with hands-on instruction, there will be a prezi presentation on the turban in Europeanfashion, and discussion about how work turbans, head wraps, and Native American turbans differedfrom those displayed in fashion plates and adorning the heads of upper class white females.

Please note: Millinery wire, tools, and other construction materials will be provided, however participantswill need to bring their own fashion fabric and embellishments (feathers, brooches, etc.). Scissors, needlesand thread will be on-hand, but participants may wish to bring their own sewing kit. This project will behand-sewing only.

21st-Century Millinery: Fascinator Creation--$35/$40 after January 31st,limit 15 participantsEia Radosavljevic, School of the Art Institute of Chicago

As old millinery materials disappear new ones becomeavailable, allowing a continuance of technique across time. Inthe past couple of decades woven sinamay straw has become acommon millinery material, replacing various straw cloths thatare no longer produced. Sinamay is wonderful to work in thehands—a lightweight sculptural material ideal for headwear aswell as other design.

Many types of feathers, another material that was onceubiquitous in millinery, are also no longer available. Today’smilliner no longer works with the feathers of endangered birds.Feathers that are readily available now are generally aby-product of other uses, such as the French coque feather,otherwise known as a rooster feather. Manipulated by themillinery designer, a plain chicken feather becomes a fancifulembellishment.

Following a brief presentation of the changes in availability ofcertain millinery materials, participants will shape the flexible bias of sheets of sinamay straw,creating whimsical “fascinators,” a turn of the twenty-first century term for small headwear, usuallyembellished with feathers or flowers. Proceeding without sketches, the properties of the materialitself will guide the design, connecting the hands of the creator with the sculptural, wearable object.Hand sewn assembly and manipulated feathers will complete the sinamay cocktail hat, or“fascinator.”

Skills learned during the workshop include:• sculpting and edge-finishing woven sinamay straw• stripping, trimming, and curling feathers• hand-sewing stitches for assembly of sinamay hat sculpture & manipulated feather elements• attachment options, including combs or elastic cord

Please note: These materials are included: sinamay, feathers, small spray bottle, needles, thread, wire,adhesives, floral tape, paints/brushes, hair comb clips, cord elastic, optional blocked hat bases.

9:00 – 10:30

Make a Pieced Pocket Inspired by Colonial Williamsburg Object 1983-371-- $35/$40after January 31st, limit 15 participantsChristina Westenberger, The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation

In the 18th and early-19th centuries, women’s gowns did not have pockets. Instead, women wore aseparate bag under their skirts to carry their personal items for everyday use. These separate pocketswere made from a variety of available textiles and came in an array of designs from plain toembroidered to pieced together. During this 1.5 hour workshop participants will have theopportunity to view a set of Patch Work Pockets from the Colonial Williamsburg collection. Theywill then begin hand sewing a pieced pocket from reproduction cottons that are currently on exhibitat the Art Museums of Colonial Williamsburg.

Please note: Instructions, patterns, needle, thread, printed cotton blocks, linen backing & lining and tapeare included. Participants are encouraged to bring thimble, scissors and favorite needles. This project willbe hand-sewing only.

10:30 – 12:00

Seaming Up Skins: The Skill Behind Making Leather Breeches-- $20/$25 after January31st, limit 15 participantsTim Logue, The Colonial Williamsburg FoundationEmma Cross, The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation

“The best Fair-stitch hands are wanted…as the best prices are given.”[1]

Leather breeches were among theubiquitous garments of the last half ofthe 18th century. Found on legs of menand boys from every economic andsocial station in the English-speakingworld, leather breeches, sometimesreferred to as buckskin breeches, serveda role similar to modern blue jeans.Durable for work-a-day wear, casualand comfortable for undress, and,under the right circumstances, evenfashionable for sporting and hunting,this practical yet fashionable garmentrepresented a global network of tradeand industry. Working with this

19

material provides connections with breeches-makers across the centuries and the challenges theyfaced through daily production demands. This workshop will show that, after instruction, workingwith soft dressed leather can be similar to working with fabric and therefore be just as quick.

This hands-on workshop will focus on the construction techniques of leather breeches and thenature of working with soft dressed leather. Participants will be taught the various stitches andseaming methods used to create the garment, including the Fair-stitch which seems to be used onlyin creating leather garments. Participants will also learn about what skins were used in the 18th and19th centuries and the global trade that transported those skins into the hands of breeches makers.By working with the leather themselves, participants will be able to enter the on-going conversationabout breeches-makers, the production times, methods of cutting, and the eighteenth-century globalbreeches trade.

The presenters have learned their skills under Jay Howlett, Journeyman Saddler and MilitaryArtificer at Colonial Williamsburg, who has fifteen years of experience studying surviving originalleather breeches, the patterning, cut, and construction. This workshop expands on the theories andprocesses presented in Corium Cruentadum Non: A Study of Industrial Production of Leather Breeches inthe 18th Century, a paper which may also be presented at this conference.

Please note: Materials are included. A basic knowledge of hand sewing is desired for participants in thisclass, but not required. This project will be hand-sewing only.

MASTERCLASS9:00 – 10:00From Botetourt St. to Baltimore: How Making MatteredNorah Worthington, Baltimore School for the Arts

It is valid to ask why the study of old garments should matter. The outside world sees an obsessedreenactor, a cloistered academic, or a picky museum curator arguing about thread counts and asks, “Why should we care?” And yet, we do care. Passionately. How does that narrow focus turn inside outand end up reaching people outside our fields? During this hour-long masterclass, participants willbe invited to engaged in a larger interactive discussion concerning these issues. Attendance will not becapped.

Engaging Labor, Acknowledging Maker

From sweatshops to ateliers, costume shops to university apparel studios, fiber farms to science labs,museums to costume/wardrobe departments and all points in between—human labor is a commondenominator across all realms within our field. In conjunction with this year’s conference theme,“Making Connections: Manufacturing Knowledge Through Dress Studies,” the 2018 Scholars’Roundtable will examine questions, concerns, critiques, and productive possibilities regarding therole of human labor in the manufacture of dress, costume, fashion, identity, and history. To whatdegree is labor made (in)visible? How is labor exploited and/or celebrated? Are we adequatelyaddressing the ethical complexities of labor in our teaching and research? How might labor becomea powerful epistemological tool in the classroom? What methods do we use to uncover histories oflabor and experiences of garment workers? How is labor acknowledged? In the wake of RanaPlaza--which came more than a century after the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire--we are left towonder: have we regressed? We invite nominations of scholars from across all aspects of ourfield—whether researchers, makers, teachers, designers, collectors, curators, or historians, amongothers--whose work engages some aspect of labor. We challenge the 2018 Scholars’ Roundtable tocreate a more meaningful and productive conversation around labor and our relation to it.
