Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This issue of <em>New Zealand Fashion Quarterly</em> invokes Schiaparelli, Yves St Laurent and even Len Lye. The art connection turns out to be the back drop for the fashion spread ‘Wet Paint’. ‘Muscle and moxie’ is the new fashionable ideal, yet stars of a new virtual-reality thriller pose for a fashion shoot, themed as romantic drama -with him on top.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Although the 19th century saw the proliferation of fashion magazines such as <em>Harper’s Bazaar</em> (1867) and <em>Cosmopolitan</em> (1886) there had been earlier ones. One, <em>The Gallery of Fashion</em>, appeared between 1794 and 1803 and was deemed Britain’s first fashion magazine. King George III’s daughters were subscribers who read it avidly. Today there are hundreds of ‘Fashion’ magazines, ranging from <em>Allure</em> (1991), <em>AneCan</em> (2007), and <em>Elle</em> (1945), to <em>Look</em> (2007), <em>Seventeen</em> (1944), and<em> W</em> (1971). Before the advent of photography, fashion was documented through engravings, paintings and drawings. This mis-bound volume of<em> The Ladies’ Gazette of Fashion</em> contains the ‘newest’ fashions of London and Paris from May 1856 to November 1864. The chief sponsor for these superb hand-coloured images is the silk mercer firm of Grant and Gask, Oxford Street.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The $64,000 question in this issue is: ‘What type of face powder should you wear?’ Hardly Paris glamour, yet this journal provides fashion tips for Australasian women and offers free dress-making patterns for ‘glamorous frocks’ and children’s wear (and a guide for embroidering a frolicking lamb). Doris Day, Gregory Peck and Prince Edward rub shoulders with astrology, recipes, home-decorating ideas and the Heart to Heart column with its perennial tales of jilting, philandering and mystery. Advertisements offer books and classes in dress-making, an essential skill in Australia and New Zealand in the 1950s.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Christian Dior (1905-57) founded ‘one of the world’s top fashion houses’ in 1946, and he became known as a master of shape and silhouette. Dior’s first collection, presented in February 1947, was called the ‘New Look’, a term coined by <em>Harper’s Bazaar</em> US editor-in-chief at the time, Carmel Snow. The ‘look’ was defined by cinched waists and voluminous skirts – an antidote to the austerity of women’s wartime fashion. Described as ‘mutinous indulgence’, some skirts used up to 20 metres of fabric. Dior continues today as one of the most successful brands in the world, designing not only couture but perfumes and accessories as well.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
More than ten thousand clothing items are held in the collection of the Kyoto Costume Institute, collected under a charter issued by the Japanese Government Agency for Cultural Affairs in 1978. The Institute sees clothing as ‘an expression of human feelings, of culture and industry, and change’. Among the collection are these Thierry Mugler designs from the 1980s and 1990s. Mugler is a French designer known for his 1980s ‘power fashions’. The shapely colourful jackets certainly have impact.

Trelise Cooper joins Nick Blanchet, Tanya Carlson, Liz Mitchell, and Denise L’Estrange Corbet in a futuristic fashion spread on the eve of the millennium. The model on the right wears a ‘silk organza tunic and plastic-coated silk asymmetric hipster skirt’, valued at $1800 for the set. In this issue Cathrin Schaer also notes that fashion has made it into the universities as a credible field of study in marketing, sociology and dress history. The cover title for this 1999 issue reads: ‘Glamour is Back’, a far cry from the grunge fashions of the early 1990s.

Bowbyes retired from teaching at Otago in 1961 and went on to teach at Guelph University in Ontario, Canada from 1963 to 1969. During that time, she was invited to, and presumably attended, fashion shows in Paris. Here are four of those invites: <em>Christian Dior</em> – in the 1960s Marc Bohan was the creative director; <em>Jeanne Lanvin</em> – Lanvin (1867-1946) established the oldest fashion house still in business today; <em>Pierre Cardin</em> – an Italian-born French designer who worked for both Dior and Schiaparelli before establishing his own brand; and the <em>International Wool Secretariat</em> – established in 1937 to promote wool sales for wool growers around the world, including New Zealand.

Fashion marketers sell social context. The focus of what is being sold changes over time, subtly shifting from the extrinsic properties of the actual fashion objects towards the intrinsic qualities of individuals. Celebrities, either by modelling a specific item or appearing on the cover of a fashion magazine, offer a powerful marketing construct to the fashion industry. Lorde, a popular New Zealand singer-songwriter, is not a professional model yet the editors of <em>Dazed & Confused</em> recognise that her association with the magazine (as a product in itself) is likely to generate sales in ways that an unknown model could not.

London: Debrett’s Peerage
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
George IV said of Sir Robert Peel: ‘He is no gentleman! He divides his tails when he sits down.’ Perhaps Peel should have consulted <em>Debrett’s</em>. For centuries those anxious to avoid social blunders have consulted books on etiquette and manners. In such books dress is usually treated as a form of good manners as much as an expression of taste. The general rule is that acceptable dress never attracts attention. Books such as this provide a guide on what that might be in a given era. <em>Debrett’s</em> considers men’s fashion perilous, unlike women whose ‘errors in judgement’ can instead be taken as novel variants of current fashion.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Organised theatrical productions first occurred in Ancient Greece from about 500 BC. At festivals honouring Dionysus, the god of theatre (and wine), Greek actors, all male, wore masks with exaggerated expressions to denote social status, age and gender. In the modern era, theatre costumes still help the audience with ‘stereotypical characterisation’. This image of a ‘Warrior’ was drawn by leading Irish artist Cecil Ffrench Salkeld (d. 1969). Salkeld’s mother was a writer and actor and he studied art from the age of 15 in Dublin and Germany.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This book is an A to Z of the industry’s iconic designers, photographers, models, editors, and other notables of the fashion world. Here we see the haircut which made Vidal Sassoon a household name. His geometric, low maintenance styles helped create both the look of the 1960s and the cult of the hairdresser.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
‘Now can we stop talking about my body?’ is the question posed in this recent<em> Time</em> magazine article on <em>Barbie</em>, the iconic doll first introduced by creator Ruth Handler to the New York Toy Fair in 1959. From the original busty thin-formed shape, the producers (<em>Mattel</em>) of this multi-million dollar fashion-doll business have learnt to morph their product: <em>Malibu Barbie</em> (1971);<em> Surgeon Barbie</em> (1973); a multicultural <em>Barbie</em> (1980), and so on. She even got a pal: <em>Ken</em> (1961). In a high fashion move in 2014, <em>Mattel</em> articulated her ankles so that she could finally wear flats. Flagging sales and evolving cultural attitudes have forced another remake, where consumers are now offered petite, tall or curvy. Only time (and fashion trends) will reveal how long this global symbol will last.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
‘In China, there is the grandeur of rites and social conduct; that is why it is called Xia (夏). There is the beauty of dress and decoration; this is called Hua (華).’ The result is Huaxia (華夏), which is often used to represent the Chinese civilization nowadays. The Court costumes here depict ensembles worn by emperors, courtiers, and the like, probably of the Qing (1644-1912) dynasty. The clothes were often complex in arrangement, multi-layered and made of silk, in rich brocades or embroidered, featuring bright colours like vermillion and blue. This image, and the others from this volume, are on delicate pith-paper (from the Chinese plant tongcao, generally identified as<em> Tetrapanax papyrifera</em>).

A summary of the resource.
Super model Brooke Shields in resort wear ‘enjoys more fashion’; Quentin Bell discusses the sexual preferences of Vita Sackville West; and Anne Rice reviews David Bowie’s harsh yet vulnerable androgyny and the end of gender. A piece on Kathryn Whitmire, mayor of Houston, proves a woman can win power even in Texas where ‘…a woman was supposed to be only clever enough to hide her intelligence’. Such meaty articles from the 1980s are interspersed with full page glossy advertising, selling a mix of fur coats, perfume, credit cards, and cigarettes.

‘A good place to be, in July. On a beach. Head sheltered with a rebozo [scarf]... Moss green eye shadow, Golden Red lipstick.’ This July <em>Vogue</em> issue also features the psychological diet and a photographic essay by Irving Penn showing sixty working men in their working clothes - a charming display of macho, industrial chic.<em> Vogue</em> patterns are promoted in the last few pages of the magazine with ‘How to find a bathing suit in July: Make one.’ Pattern numbers, size range and material yardage are detailed, but unlike the <em>Australian Home Journals</em>, there are no free patterns here.<br />(Unfortunately permission was not granted to use the cover image of this issue)

A summary of the resource.
Gaze into the mirror-like cover of <em>Vogue</em>’s special Millennium issue. Capturing the essence of the genre with its promise of transformation, the cover declares that ‘the future starts here’ with a new body, new clothes, and a new you. Another fashion trope is the relationship between fashion and art – a relationship perhaps more love affair than marriage. (Unfortunately permission was not granted to use the cover image of this issue)
