Costume Director Judy Adamson's period patterning class presented their next round of 19th century projects--1830s gowns--which is quite timely, given our next show on deck, Nicholas Nickleby!

I also have another interesting blog to plug, for costume history and reproduction enthusiasts! Trying on History is the blog of the Vassar College Costume Collection, tracing their historical reproduction projects utilizing garments in their clothing archive. Thusfar, the blog covers mostly their first such project, a 1910-era gown from the Franklin Simon 5th Avenue store in NYC. The collection has received an internal grant funding the reproduction program, and it looks like it's shaping up to be a really cool educational feature--i'm looking forward to following future projects-yet-to-come. Check it out!
