Excerpt from Fancies Fashions and Fads Millionaires were not allowed to ride rough-shod over others by reason of their wealth; indeed, many of them were merely tolerated, like Louis Quatorze - a nickname conferred upon a certain rich alien, whose Christian name was Louis, because he was never asked to dinner except when an extra guest was required to prevent the party being thirteen. To-day, at least among that ridiculous section known as the Smart Set, millionaires of no matter what race are indisputably lords paramount by right of superabundant cash. The days indeed have gone when any attempt at arrogance on the part of men or women of Semitic extraction was sternly and promptly repressed.

From the dawn of history until the start of the last century discover the history and changing nature of fashion. The Evolution of Fashion is a brief book and is not overly technical. It is easily accessible those for without specific expertise in the area of fashion and a must read for anyone with interest in historical costume. The book begins with the item of clothing that is perhaps considered the cornerstone of fashion - the dress. Florence May Gardiner briefly explores the history of the dress, tracing its development from Ancient Egypt, to the Greeks and Romans, and through the 12th, 14th, and 16th centuries in Britain. Through descriptions and images, Gardiner highlights the changes over time that lead to the development of modern dresses, circa 1897. The book takes a similar approach to other items of fashion, including headgear, gloves, footwear, bridal costumes, and specialty items such as funeral-wear and fancy costumes. Space is devoted to a brief history of each category of clothing, with each chapter concluding with an examination of the current fashion. Fashion enthusiasts with an appetite for history will certainly enjoy the images and descriptions of the items deemed "en vogue" in the late 1800's, and will likely relish the opportunity to build connections between modern fashion and what is presented within this book.

Excerpt from Good-Bye, Proud World Women read it and want to know what other women think about the new books and fashions, about every new fad and kink even what other women say and think about politics. He was not a. Man who did anything in haste. Nevertheless when Milicent returned next day to find out the fate of her papers, these two rooms had been cleared out and the chief himself led her into them and told her to sit down and write six articles on different subjects. He gave her a week to do it in, and she had a. Good reference library, with multitudes of periodicals and newspapers to help her at a pinch. If asked to define her sensations when all through those first days she sat locked up in this prison house, Milicent would have confessed to a horrible feeling of littleness, of being a swimmer in deep waters with no land in sight and the overarching heavens too far off to heed her. How she dreaded the moment when the master's eye should fall upon what she had written! The very sound Of that step in the passage had checked her pulses and frozen her feet and fingers! Well, Mr. Grainger had kept her on, but, as he always declared, it was he who had taught her all she knew about writing. Very pretty, but it is n't journalism, he had said, pulling up every flower of her fancy. Some people, he would add with a sort of indignation, some people can't learn, but I fancy you can.

While women are generally perceived to be less competitive than men, women compete in many ways and in a variety of situations. Women try to make themselves look more attractive to draw the attention of a desirable mate. They will use gossip as a form of informational warfare to influence reputations. They compete as mothers to gain access to resources that directly influence the health of their children. They use selfies posted on social media to manipulate others' perceptions. Women compete all of their lives: in the womb, through adolescence and adulthood, and into their elder years. The topic of women's competition has gained significant momentum over the years. Edited by Maryanne L. Fisher, The Oxford Handbook of Women and Competition provides readers with direct evidence of this growth and is one of the first scholarly volumes to focus specifically on this topic. Fisher and her team of contributors offer a definitive worldview of the current state of knowledge regarding competition among women today. Many of the chapters are grounded within an evolutionary framework, allowing for authors to investigate the adaptive nature of women's competitive behaviors, motivations, and cognition. Other chapters rely on alternative frameworks, with contributors also asserting that socio-cultural forces are the culprit shaping women's competitive drives. Additionally, several contributors focus their attention on issues faced by adolescent girls, and explore the developmental trajectories for young women through adulthood. Designed to serve as a source of inspiration for future research and direction, The Oxford Handbook of Women and Competition is a stand-out scholarly text focusing on the many competitive forces driving women today.

Prior to the 1970s and 1980s, fashion marketing focused heavily (and perhaps solely) on women's fashions. Today, fashion marketing influences all products and how consumers use these products. How products are marketed, when products are marketed, the evolution of products into different sizes, shapes, colors, and uses are all influenced by fashion marketers. Fashion marketing is taken to different levels from branding a person (e.g., Ralph Lauren, the person), a line of products (e.g., Lexus luxury cars), or a single product (e.g., Coach handbag). This much-needed text introduces new methods and technologies to apply today's principles to future practices of fashion marketing.

"Award-winning journalist Michele Weldon provides a potent antidote to the harried single mom stereotype in this beguiling memoir of raising three sons alone in the face of cancer, an ambitious career, and the shadow of her ex. Untethered from a seemingly idyllic life with a handsome but abusive attorney husband, Weldon relates the challenges and triumphs of the years that followed her divorce as she maneuvers through a complicated life of long daily commutes, radiation treatments, supporting the boys' all-consuming high school wrestling careers, and trying to mitigate their hurt and resentment at an absent father. By turns humorous and heartbreaking, Weldon describes facing her fears and failures honestly, guided by a belief in the power of staying calm, doing one's best, and asking for help. She provides a graceful example of how a single mother, and her children, can succeed when others--neighbors, family, teachers, and in this case an incredible high school wrestling coach--step in to fill the void and she can stay the course with common sense and dutiful love"--

Presenting the history of corsetry and body sculpture, this edition shows how the relationship between fashion and sex is closely bound up with sexual self-expression. It demonstrates how the use of the corset rejected the role of the passive, maternal woman, so that in Victorian times it was seen as a scandalous threat to the social order.
