Patterns for Corticelli Yarn, 1922

Once commercial yarn was invented and women were not spinning it themselves, yarn producers realized it made a lot of sense to feed the hunger for new patterns. You see here a page taken from a free publication which you will find at the Antique Pattern Library online.

Because of black and white movies, and the modern tendency for movie directors to make everyone wear sepia tones in historical stories, we often forget that the people of the past lived with just as much color as well do. You see here 1920s sweaters with some very playful coloring especially the lower right-hand picture. But all of them have some color play if only tipping. Notice that the waists are not well marked, and belts tended to fall lower and looser. This is in keeping with the tube silhouette which became so popular during the 1920s and made women try to flatten out all of their curves. Dropped collars were also popular in the 1910s and in the early 1920s.

I sketched out some centaur designs based on the 1910s a while back. I admit the research was pretty surface level, but it was still great fun.

Fooduary Day 3: Strawberry Shortcake

Apparently strawberry shortcakes got their whipped cream variation in France, 1910. As the quintessential unemployed artist I’ve worked in a few kitchens and I’ve made dozens of Strawberry shortcakes. Though technically they were strawberry shortcakes in name only because they were technically strawberry angel food cakes. Either way they are delicious, and deeply nostalgic. Eating strawberry shortcakes in the peak of their summer season? Local? You wouldn’t believe how sweet they get.

I am the artist! Do not post without permission & credit! Thank you! Come visit me over on: instagram, tiktok or check out my coloring book available now \ („• ֊ •„) /

The Dramatic Shirtwaist at the Grand Rapids Public Museum

I usually think of shirtwaist as puffy, printed, light-colored cotton garment like the one worn by my great grandmother, but of course, a shirtwaist, or blouse could come in any color.This one is part of the Fashion and Nature exhibition at the Grand Rapids Public Museum, part of the section on cotton and shirtwaists.

As you can see, it is an over-the-top design of excessive details and embellishments. The sheer black fabric is pleated down the sleeves, and each pleat is marked by a red velvet ball. The blacks backed with white, and lace trims the cuffs. Then lace collar has a red band outlining it as well as a red ribbon at the top of its high neckline and red bows to shut its surplice front. Don’t forget the red balls and bands at the shoulders. You can see why It reminded me of Elizabeth Phelps, the dress reformer who complained in 1873 that women’s fashion had become “a meaningless dazzle of broken effects.” This blouse dates to the early 20th Century, but the eye finds no rest as it travels up and down and across. No wonder the Dress Doctors kept harping on simplicity. Their eyes had been exhausted.
