@@aldenheterodyne2833 I was talking about the 1665 plague outbreak in the village of Eyam in England. A flea infested bolt of cloth arrived from London to the local tailor. Eyam chose to quarantine themselves to try to prevent the spread of the disease. They even practised a form of social distancing by having the church services outside so they could spread out, rather than all be confined in the church. And families buried their own dead to avoid spreading it to others as best as they could. Their actions prevented the spread of the disease into surrounding areas.
@AlexaFaie 4 жыл бұрын
Also to trade with people from outside the town when they heard of the spread of the plague, they had been doing contactless delivery. They had a set place to leave goods to be traded at a set price and money was left in a hole in a rock filled with vinegar as a form of disinfectant. Food was also rinsed in vinegar to clean it. They'd been doing really well up until some higher up decided they still needed some fancy new clothes and so sadly the plague came in on the flea infested fabric. They didn't know the fleas carried it at that point, so had done everything they could have done to avoid it.

The "pigeon breast" shape could also be achieved by sewing little, stiff ruffles horizontally on the inside of the dress bodice at a strategic point (depending on one's shape and bust size). The beauty of this bust bodice is that you could wear it with all one's dresses and shirtwaists without having to sew ruffles in all of them.

I know this was a year ago but, the point of the bust bodice was to create the look without fail. Ruffles can be smashed down, and cause the dress bodice to pucker or show the shape of the ruffles underneath. Also consider getting caught out in the rain. It was much more simplistic to have one single bust bodice that could be worn under all of your dresses than to attempt the look by altering all of your dresses (which you stated) with something that may not work properly or look fashionable when worn for a few hours.

I'd bet in industrial manufacturing of these bodices, the bones were curved after they were sewn in. For many dye applications fabric has to be steamed and it is often rolled up and steamed inside of a metal cylinder, and I believe you've mentioned before there were corset shapes that emitted steam to help pre-season a whalebone corset. So I could see the featherbones being inserted flat and then steamed into shape afterward!

It’s weird seeing this “historic” garment, it looks so old fashioned... but I knew my great grandmother, she was born in 1900 and passed in 1983/4. So looking at this garment item I find it weird that my great grandmother’s mum would have worn garments like these. It does also make me wish to get throat punchy, because I was in high school when she passed, and I remember trunks of clothing being thrown out as “useless”. My mum said “don’t be stupid, these were my great grandmothers clothes, I don’t know why my grandmother kept these... what would you need/want these for?” and tossed them. I managed to get my home economics and drama teachers to take them, they were BFFs, and interesting in historic clothing, one from a construction standpoint, the other from a stage costume perspective. But mum had tossed the lot before I got home, with it she’d also tossed my great, great, grandmothers sewing machine, iron and fabric stash... I cried my heart out and never actually forgave my mum for this historical vandalism. I moved on obviously, but inside I was still super pissed if I thought about it.

I simply adore watching you work. I would be content to watch you fell all day. I too love to hand stitch and always prefer it to either the sewing machine or the over-locker. Threading an over-locker is a feat of engineering that must require a technical diploma! I am inspired to have my Grandmother's Singer repaired. It must be a later model as it is built into a cabinet from which it swings out most endearingly and has a large metal pedal so as to be worked with both hands free. These seem to be reasonably common as one sees many in houses as a spot for trinkets. I saw Grandma use it once .. so surely she can sing again. Do you know when these machines became widely available. Grandma lived on a farm in outback Australia, so they must have been very readily available. I used to talk a lot to Grandma (born 1910) about sewing and there is a very old picture of her and one of her 6 sisters (she also had 7 brothers, she is the second youngest) in what look like handmade shifts or what I guess we would call nighties. I know she sewed shirts for her brothers. To be the 2nd youngest child of a 2nd youngest child, is to be born into a veritable time drift and I revel in it. Sorry for the long post. I so admire your work and methods.
