From longtime fashion director, consultant, media personality, and author, Hal Rubenstein, comes a lush, full color, illustrated guide to the most influential fashion on television from the 1950s to today, revealing the surprising ways our favorite shows have significantly reflected and often shaped the way we dress. No other medium has shaped our lives as thoroughly and consistently as television. Since its advent in the 1950s, television has served as a portal for discovering culture, initiating trends, and altering shared perceptions. Yet as Hal Rubenstein contends, television has done much more; its most dramatic, lasting, and effective influence can be found in our closets. Our most popular and lasting fashion trends and hallmarks of personal style haven't come from runways or magazines, but from what's on TV. For decades television has served as a personal stylist, showing us how others dress and defining what we should be wearing. From Mary Tyler Moore's capri pants on The Dick van Dyke Show and Emma Peel's dominatrix jumpsuit on The Avengers to Olivia Pope's trademark white trench on Scandal and Don Drapers' grey sharkskin suits on Mad Men Dressing the Part is a rich history of popular American fashion and culture in the modern age. In this gorgeous compendium, the longtime fashion director and expert identifies the most stylish television shows of the past 70 years, highlighting the ways they have affected and often inspired ordinary Americans' wardrobes. Combining his decades of fashion expertise and insider knowledge with lush photographs, archival sketches, fascinating interviews with over two dozen of television's best costume designers, commentary from showrunners and co-stars, and little-known backstories, Rubenstein reveals with insight and wit how television has shaped everyday fashion, guiding and often elevating how we dress. Illustrated with over 175 gorgeous, full-color photographs, Dressing the Part is an extraordinary survey of our most beloved shows and their most enduring impact on style, shining a spotlight on the most innate human characteristics of all--how we imitate and then adapt what we enjoy seeing on others.

Not long after the gospel of Matthew opens, and just as it seems reasonable for Jesus to begin His public ministry, He is whisked away by the Spirit into the desert "to be tempted by the devil" - three times. Immediately, the schemes of Satan are fully revealed. The defeated one suggested that Jesus' talk could turn stones into bread. Satan proposed that Jesus' walk could be impressive and significant if He were to throw Himself off the pinnacle of the temple. Finally, the devil tried to entice Jesus with the thought of His wardrobe being arrayed with the power of all the kingdoms. Satan tempted Jesus by appealing to the desire to be relevant, significant, and powerful. Aren't these the same appealing areas of vulnerability for us as educators? How natural to want to be relevant while talking to our students, impressive and significant in our profession, and powerful in our classroom kingdoms! Nothing would please the tempter more than to derail our earthly walk, talk, and wardrobe. He doesn't want us to "walk the talk or dress the part" of being a follower of Christ and a light in a dark and needy world. Like Jesus, we don't need to outsmart or outmuscle Satan. We need to simply "out-truth" him with the powerful words of God. Sheryl Vasso has spent the last several years directing the Masters of Education Program at Philadelphia Biblical University and traveling the world as a professor of teachers enrolled in graduate studies. Cammy Tidwell, on the other hand, took an early "retirement" from the teaching profession to spend time at home with her children. Through the common passion of studying and teaching God's Word, Sheryl and Cammy have united, first as friends, and then as partners in their speaking and writing ministry, Words of Worth, Inc. (www.wordsofworth.com). Both Sheryl and Cammy reside in Newtown, PA.

"From Olmec costume switching to Peruvian bundle burials we see which types of power were gendered, which symbols or motifs were power filled, and how these symbols were borne by the living and the dead. This collection showcases a mature gendered archaeology."--Cheryl Claassen, author of Beliefs and Rituals in Archaic Eastern North America: An Interpretive Guide Costume can reveal a wealth of information about an individual's identity within society. Dressing the Part looks at the ways individuals in the ancient Americas used clothing, hairstyle, and personal ornaments to express status and power, gender identity, and group affiliations, even from the grave. While most gender studies of pre-Columbian societies focus on women, these essays also foreground men and persons of multiple or ambiguous gender, exploring how these various identities are part of the greater fabric of social relations, political power, and religious authority. The contributors to this volume discuss how costume elements represented empowered identities, how different costumes expressed gender and power, and how elite gendered costume elements may have been appropriated by people of other genders as symbols of power. Dressing the Part examines how individual identity played a role in larger schemes of social relationship in the ancient Americas. Employing a variety of theories and methodologies from art history, anthropology, ethnography, semiotics, and material science, this volume considers not only how authority is gendered or related to gender but also how the dynamics between power and gender are negotiated through costume. Sarahh E. M. Scher is a visiting lecturer in art history at Salem State University. Billie J. A. Follensbee is professor of art history and museum studies program coordinator at Missouri State University.

What is to be said about the fabric of America? Where to stand in the world of fashions' trend setters of early 20th century? This book depicts (shorten historical version) three of the most influential designers of 20th century Europe and their impact on American couturiers. Beginning with Gabrielle (Coco) Chanel who first gave the world what has come to represent a staple in most women's closet, the little black dress (lbd). Chanel having selected the color as Jean Patou dictated the cut for the preciseness of the lbd dress. Christian Dior, known to some as "the gentle genius" was one of two top designers who impacted the world of Haute Couture. Dior's design was categorized as the Extravagants; whose theme in clothing tends to favor that of a figured silhouette with fuller skirt and the tiniest of a waste line. The other designer was Cristóbal Balenciaga, who achieved acclaim as the master of twentieth century fashion. Balenciaga's genius was in the construction of the design and his gift to Haute Couture was to add quality to what perhaps might not have been there; a refined enhancement of elegance, giving the haute women what they aspired to be, idealized beauty if only for a day. The Haute Couture designers stressed the importance in the relationship between fashion, modern life and art. With each creation they related the transitory nature, or constant change of fashion as the hallmark of modernity, depicting versatile, traditional and timeless style.
