At an average of forty-five minutes focusing on one interview subject, Cvetkovic is able to plumb the depths of their personal experience in dressing: all three subjects cite their fathers as catalysts for early interests in clothing. The conversational and unscripted edit of these discussions allows the telling parts of oral testimony, the pauses and the exclamations, to speak volumes. The pleasure or distaste the interviewees feel for certain garments, the excitement about the discovery of a new inspiration is captured in the tenor and content of their telling. Episodes ‘#32 Scott Fraser Simpson’ and ‘#33 Andr e Larnyoh’ spend time examining the cultural touchpoints they consider stylish (examples include Miles Davis, Jean-Michel Basquiat, the Mod scene in Brighton and Anthony Minghella’s 1999 film The Talented Mr Ripley). In ‘#39 Fred Nieddu’, the subject’s varied prior experience, working in multi-brand retail shops and apprenticing in different tailoring houses, coheres in his current practice where he insists on an open mind toward construction techniques, drawing from outside the traditional British methods of Savile Row. The strength of both podcasts ultimately lies in using oral testimony to highlight how the individual, personal experience of dress can speak to larger societal constructs. Articles of Interest episode ‘#10 Suits’ begins and ends with Rae Tuturo of custom suit maker Bindle & Keep discussing the sense of self they found in suiting and how they parlayed that into a business that aimed to dress any gender. Episode ‘#3 Pockets’ questions what tools might be necessary for us to carry if we lived in a more equitable society — would housekeys matter if there were no fear of theft driving us to lock our doors? In episode #33 of Handcut Radio, Cvetkovic posits that style inspiration should not be drawn just from the dress habits of an individual, but also their wider ethics and behaviour. Toward the end of that same interview, Larnyoh poses an open question to the audience, formed from his own experience feeling isolated in the world of tailoring and luxury: why are black designers and style personalities not included at the forefront of ‘menswear’? While taking different approaches, Articles of Interest as a narrative journey through concepts of dress and Handcut Radio as the musings and autobiographies of dressed individuals, both podcasts provide profound insights into the experience and meaning of being dressed.","PeriodicalId":43311,"journal":{"name":"TEXTILE HISTORY","volume":"52 1","pages":"205 - 209"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47432771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This was typified by the introduction of the women’s gauzy neoclassical gown, the sleekness of which starkly contrasted with the expansive paniers of the preceding century. It was this period of sartorial transition that formed the focus for the Lewis Walpole Library’s exhibition ‘Artful Nature: Fashion and Theatricality 1770–1830’. Like so many exhibitions in 2020, ‘Artful Nature’ was forced to close earlier than intended as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. However, curators Laura Engel and Amelia Rauser have created a comprehensive online resource, which is the subject of this review, enabling a global audience to view the exhibit. The website provides multiple images of each object on display, with links to the item description in the museum’s online database. There is also a short film by the curators discussing exhibition highlights and an accompanying brochure is available to download. The physical exhibition fitted into one room at the Walpole Library, but nevertheless contained a wealth of content that has translated well to the online context. While the online exhibition is no substitute for in-person visits, viewers can perhaps take in more information as they browse the website at their leisure, rather than jostling for space with other visitors. Divided between six thematic sections, ‘Artful Nature’ considers the blurring of boundaries between ‘naturalism’ in women’s dress and behaviour in the age of sensibility, and the art required to create an apparently ‘natural’ aesthetic. The display draws on the interdisciplinary backgrounds of its two curators: Rauser has published on political satire and fashion in eighteenth-century Europe and is the author of The Age of Undress (Yale, 2020); literary historian Engel has written extensively on actresses as fashion icons. Theatricality is an integral part of this exhibition, which argues that the acting profession embodied the transgressive fluidity between artifice and nature, sensibility and sexuality—a fluidity that was also a hallmark of the neoclassical gown. The engraving used to publicise the exhibition is G. M. Woodward’s Art of Fainting in Company (Fig. 1). This image aligns fashionable society with both sensibility and artifice as the young woman collapses in a staged pose which best shows off her elegant dress. The online visitor emerges with a sense of the complexities of representing femininity and fashion in this period. Engel and Rauser argue in the exhibition brochure that they aim to show how ‘women embraced the “anti-fashion” of neoclassical dress as a way to represent their own artistic agency and to deflect traditional criticisms of women as flighty, unserious, or deceptive’. While this claim is expanded upon in their lengthier publications, female agency through dress is a more subtle undertone in the images presented here. The overarching impression from the majority of male-penned images is","PeriodicalId":43311,"journal":{"name":"TEXTILE HISTORY","volume":"52 1","pages":"191 - 195"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42050635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They are also a topic of current discussion, as schools seek to maintain the principle of uniformity while accommodating the modesty codes of religious adherents, the identity of non-gender-conforming students and the limited budgets of lowincome families. An examination of the origins and principles of school uniforms is thus both timely and necessary. School uniforms present a challenge for the historian, as their origins lie at opposite poles of the social spectrum: charitable institutions for poor or orphan boys, and private academies for young gentlemen. Additionally, for a phenomenon that is widespread in contemporary Britain, it can be difficult to separate out historical practices from those that are familiar today. Stephenson starts with a detailed account of the charity schools founded from the sixteenth century, examining how the clothing provided for their ‘poor scholars’ was both a gift and a way of publicising the foundation and the generosity of its donors. As she recognises, the meaning of these uniforms changed over time as the required garments became outdated. Stephenson also discusses the distinctions between charitable foundations, with some (like Christ’s Hospital in London) being recognised for its academic achievements, while others remained true to their original aims of training children for a life of service. A further distinction not considered by Stephenson is found in the Workhouse schools set up from the 1840s, whose institutional clothing was deliberately stigmatising. Stephenson goes on to discuss the reformation of private schools such as Eton and Winchester in the mid-nineteenth century, in order to provide not only the learning required to enter Oxford or Cambridge, but also the self-discipline and esprit de corps needed to rule the Empire. As she recognises, the insistence on large wardrobes of clothing suitable for team sports and formal occasions, as well as study, reinforced the reputations of schools as elite institutions while acting as a barrier to parvenu or insolvent parents. A different dynamic was present in the elite girls’ schools founded in the late nineteenth century, as they were educating girls for professions that were mostly closed to them. Thus, their ethos was idealistic, even quixotic, and strongly imbued with feminism. In practical terms, this meant an emphasis on sports and gymnastics, and on clothing that was not too tight or cumbersome while remaining ‘ladylike’. Stephenson uses school archives and unpublished photographs to provide a nuanced discussion of the different solutions proposed by different schools, from the fashionable dresses of Cheltenham Ladies’ College and the ‘djibbahs’ of Roedean to the gymnasium tunics of St Leonards. The latter were the forerunners of the pleated ‘gym slip’, which was first introduced to elite ","PeriodicalId":43311,"journal":{"name":"TEXTILE HISTORY","volume":"52 1","pages":"228 - 229"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43513096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The increase in the percentage of children in full-time education probably contributed to the current ubiquity of school uniforms, but the mechanism needs clarifying. Another issue not fully examined is the simplification of uniform garments in state schools, apparent from the 1960s, to grey, navy or black main garments (usually with red and black trim) distinguished only by the school logo. Indeed, the difference between the purple serge or green tweed garments required by private schools and the grey or black polyester of state schools is not only aesthetic, but also economic. When school trousers and tunics are available at low cost from supermarkets and high street stores, it is harder to cast them as exclusive or exclusionary. Her vagueness over these issues undermines Stephenson’s otherwise able summary of the debates over uniform wearing in contemporary Britain. Ironically, one of the book’s strengths — its close engagement with the archives of historical institutions — ends up limiting its exploration of the fuller educational and cultural landscape. The school experience of the majority of the population also requires further study to establish its distinctive historiography.","PeriodicalId":43311,"journal":{"name":"TEXTILE HISTORY","volume":"52 1","pages":"229 - 230"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44982441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The book’s importance is self-evident, and it should become essential reading for students and scholars of Judaica and religious textiles in general. The attention synagogal textiles have attracted so far is surprisingly limited, especially considering the role that Jews played in textile-related professions throughout the centuries, and so this book addresses a pressing void in the existing literature. Its contents are divided into three sections, with the first providing a substantial foundation on the subject. The first chapter discusses the evolution of synagogal textiles in correlation with Jewish religious practices. As the written sources are fragmented and earlier objects scarce, the difficulty of creating a diachronic narrative is addressed by exploiting visual sources as well, mainly though not exclusively Western. The second chapter offers an overview of the fabrics and techniques preferred for religious use, in relation to the wider cultural context. This chapter focuses on embroidery, a much-appreciated craft in Europe especially during the Renaissance and the Baroque periods. The author is very informative on the Jewish tradition of embroidery, a lesserknown activity of the community compared to weaving and the textile trade. From an anthropological point of view, it is interesting that the reuse of women’s garments as ceremonial textiles was acceptable. Notably, this is a practice that textile historians have documented in other religions as well (for example, Christianity, Buddhism), and has continued until relatively recently. Thus, this chapter illuminates how the ceremonial use of textiles reflected a diasporic community’s integration into different societies. This approach of pointing out both common and divergent elements emerges in the rest of the book, as well as in the third chapter, which is dedicated to the Torah wrapper and binder. The fourth chapter, dedicated to the Torah mantle, brings forward another thought-provoking argument: that each community’s clothing not only affected the types of fabric used in the synagogue, but also the way the specific ceremonial veil (the mantle) was cut, suggesting a most intriguing association between ceremonial textiles and secular costume. The fifth chapter examines the adornment of the Torah ark curtain and valance, including both generically secular designs and Jewish motifs like the Gateway to Heaven, cherubim, the crown, the Temple and its vessels, and other examples. Overall, Yaniv makes the point that synagogal textiles probably constitute the most authentic expression of Jewish material culture as most craftsmen involved in their manufacture were Jewish. In addition, the symbolism conveyed in certain textiles nurtured the prevalence of signif","PeriodicalId":43311,"journal":{"name":"TEXTILE HISTORY","volume":"52 1","pages":"222 - 223"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46009866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
