TESTIMONIALS FROM THE EXPERTS I have bought numerous History of Costume - photo 1

TESTIMONIALS FROM THE EXPERTS

I have bought numerous History of Costume books, but none of them tell me what I need to know, in a manner I can easily access, absorb and utilize. Your book, Out-of-Style, is so easy to understand, I want to be the first to endorse it.

the late Caroline Rober Past President of Southern California Association of Professional Genealogists

You have done a masterful job of defining your subject and your expertise in this field is unique.... Your book promises to be a wonderful help to genealogist researchers everywhere. With great admiration for you.

Loretto (Lou) Szucs, Author

V.P. Community Relations, Executive Editor, Ancestry.com

A great reference book. I cant wait to put it to use!

Maureen Taylor, The Photo Detective

Having struggled many times to figure out when a photo was taken, I know how much this book is needed. Bettys expertise will be helpful to all of us who depend on historical accuracy.

Juliana Smith, Ancestry.com Editor, Weekly Discovery

Teachers of Theatre will f ind this book to be a useful tool. This text helps technical theatre students create correctly styled costumes and helps performers create characters influenced by time appropriate attire.

Bart McHenry, Dean of Fine Arts and Media Technology, Saddleback College, Mission Viejo, California

FASCINATING! I couldnt put it down. The author shows how social development influenced how we dress. I would certainly include this book in my theatre classes for its value to future costumers, directors and actors.

Allen M. Zeltzer Professor of Theatre, Emeritus, Cal-State University at Fullerton

Many costume designers send sketches into the workroom with beautiful, but vague, artistic flourishes, leaving the actual interpretation to pattern makers. Bettys sketches are beautiful, but easy to translate, because she knows where all the seams go.

Marlene Madrid Retired Supervisor of the Disneyland Costume Workroom

Drawing upon her years of costume design experience and love of social history, Betty gives the lay person or the professional designer an invaluable research tool. She does this simply and without the complexity one must wade through in other history of costume books. Her creativity and sense of humour jumps from every page. This is one of the most valued go to books in my library with talking points new, even to me.

BETTYS THEORY OF EVOLUTION

New fashions are created by the logical accident of experimentation... gradually evolving into numerous mutations that may take decades to play out.... If everyone likes the new look, then that is IN and everything else is OUT!

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

T he first drafts of this book were encouraged by a Cheerleading Squad whose ongoing enthusiasm carried me through four years of concentrated effort to final completion!

Head cheerleader was my fashionista friend, Sally Feathers (a former real cheerleader), whose sunshine and devotion has continued to warm my pen and my heart.

Because I was computer illiterate when I began... and never learned to type (this entire book was written in longhand), my dear friend Marlene Madrid, retired supervisor of the Disneyland costume workroom, offered to type my entire book, refusing any payment except my unending gratitude for helping me get started.

I have everlasting gratitude to the late Caroline Rober, professional genealogist, who saw my first drafts of Out-of-Style and validated that I was indeed providing genealogists with an important new tool to help them climb their family trees. Thank you, Caroline, for your initial guidance.

Next, I met the delightful Lou Szucs, famous genealogist, author and Executive Editor of Ancestry.com, who immediately recognized how useful my information would be to genealogists to enable them to time-date their old family photographs. Lous educated encouragement and subsequent friendship has been of ongoing support to me.

Thank you to Ellen Reid, my helpful Book Shepherd, who guided me to Ghislain Viau, of Creative Publishing Book Design, whose good taste, creativity, patience and empathy quickly captured my vision and transformed it into the reality you see here.

Thank you to Vanessa Putt, Jennifer Becker, Terri Geus, Ellen Kraft, and the rest of the Creative Team at Dover Publications for giving a renewed look at my Lifes Work by updating this newly envisioned Second Edition.

Special thanks to my brilliant son, Ken Kreisel (who invented the world-famous, self-powered subwoofer and other audio inventions while still in his twenties). Ken and my grandson, Nick Kreisel, have tutored me daily on the use of my willful and temperamental computer.

THANK YOU and CHEERS! to all my cheerleaders!
