Historical clothes displayed

PANACHE IS a vovage into the
social and economic history of
women as reflected in their chang-
ing clothes.

Opening Nov. 27 at the Van-
couver Museum, this exhibit
showcases a fascinating collection
of historical garments which tell
the story of 200 years of women’s
fashions.

The show is the pet project of
Ivan Sayers, curator of history at
Vancouver Museum and wel!-
known lecturer on the social! his-
tory of costume.

Sayers has spent more than 30
yeats studying and collecting his-
torical costumes that reflect the
ideas and attitudes of the time.

The show demonstrates how the
evolution of fashion has followed
the gradual social emancipation of
women. Contrary to most
museum exhibits of historical
clothing, Panache concentrates
primarily on the women who wore
the pieces and the social, political
and economic conditions which
created them.

The show illustrates how the
{8th and 19th century concept of
women as primarily ornamental

Everything

Fashions Ltd.

could ask for at
Serena's — selection, service and value

objects in a man’s household
changed through both desire and
necessity, and that the need to
have women contributing physi-
cally to society indicated the need
for modern, emancipated
costume.

Panache uses clothing to il-
lustrate that not only the gar-
ments, but the women themselves
changed their fashionable ideal to
demonstrate changing social at-
titudes.

The exhibit begins in the
Rococo period of the mid-1770Qs,
followed by Neo-Classicism.
Regency fashions of the 1830s and
°40s are shown beside the Neo-
Gothic styles of the same period,
which is in turn followed by the
flamboyant hoop-skirted dresses
of the mid-19th century.

Bustles replaced hoops during
the 1870s and Panache features
garments from this pericd which
equal those shown in any museum
in the world.

The show runs at Vancouver
Museum, 1100 Chestnut Str.,
from Nov. 27 to Aug. 31. Admis-
sion is $5. For information call
the museum at 736-4431.
