The complete costume dictionary: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The complete costume dictionary" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

While there are costume and fashion dictionaries tied to specific countries or periods, none have been comprehensive. In The Complete Costume Dictionary, Elizabeth Lewandowski has collected from a variety of sources--including costume history texts, journal articles, historical publications, autobiographies, biographies, foreign language dictionaries, and contemporary publications--to create a resource that spans the globe, from the earliest record of fashion to the 21st century. Including more than 20,000 fashion and costume terms, this volume also features more than 300 illustrations. The first section of the book is an alphabetical listing of these words with their definitions, period, and country of origin. This volume also contains appendixes that list the terms by country of origin, period, and type of clothing. The book is not limited to the Western World and includes both archaic and current terms. Significantly greater in scope than anything currently available--online or in print--this one-of-a-kind publication is an invaluable resource for costume and fashion historians, textile preservationists, period re-enactors, and history and theatre scholars, as well as theatre professionals.

About the Author and Illustrator
Elizabeth J. Lewandowski is a professor of theatre at Midwestern State University, where she teaches costuming and stage makeup. She has designed costumes for more than 100 productions, ranging from drama to opera to dance. Her work has been exhibited regionally and nationally. She has served on the boards of a number of local, regional, and national organizations related to the theatrical industry. She received her undergraduate degrees in theatre and music from Bradley University and her MFA from Texas Tech University, where her mentor was Dr.

Forrest Newlin. She is passionate about all things costume related and has a special place in her heart for costume historyrelated subjects, from the history of undergarments to the use of drag in theatre. She is currently beginning work on an article on the history of fancy dress and a book on the history of drag. In her spare time, she enjoys learning new gourmet recipes, sewing for local charities, reading voraciously, spending time with her three cats, and adoring her amazing husband, Dan. Dan Lewandowski earned a BS in theatre, a BS in mass communications from Bradley University (where he met the author), and an AAS in electronics engineering technology from Amarillo College. He has worked in all of the above disciplines for a wide variety of educational and commercial organizations from Chicago to Houston and a few cities in between.

Since he and Elizabeth formed a partnership business called Mostly Harmless in 1995, some of his clients have included KERA-Dallas, Sezmi.com , and Midwestern State University. He describes himself as a mostly harmless, mysterious, flirtatious, occasionally helpful, nocturnal, bipedal, carbon-based life form who is a proud and spectacularly successful house husband, persistently fond of the author (he had to sleep with her for 25 years to get this gig.). He dabbles in writing, reading, ice hockey, philosophy, civil activism, throwing legendary solstice parties, contemplating his cosmic insignificance, and taste testing anything that the world famous author cooks up in her amazing, magic kitchen. He describes the illustration process as starting with the highly talented author quickly and seemingly effortlessly creating a gorgeous line drawing, followed by him utilizing his merely mortal skills to take way too long to tweak the perspective and proportion, smooth the lines, and add shading, color, and texture using Jasc Paint Shop Pro 8.1. He is very grateful for the chance to collaborate on this project and for the authors and editor Stephen Ryans enduring patience.

I want to offer my special thanks to the following people for their inspiration and assistance: to my husband, Dan, for his computer wizardry; to Dan and to Aaron Solomon for their assistance in making many of the 19th-century illustrations possible; to Jessica McCleary and Stephen Ryan at Scarecrow Press for believing in this project and prodding me regularly to keep at it; to the interlibrary loan librarians at Midwestern State University who never turned me away when I came asking them for yet another obscure book; to the reference section librarians at libraries across Texas who helped me with access to their rare book collections; to LaLonnie Lehman, fellow costume designer, who encouraged me to turn this project from a private list of fun words into a book; to my fellow faculty members at Midwestern State University who encouraged me to finish this daunting task; to the members and officers of the U.S. Institute for Theatre Technology (USITT) who constantly challenge themselves and others to improve themselves and expand the world of theater; and to my dear friends who understood when I went into hibernation to finish this project. The illustration of the shako is dedicated to the memory of Karen Tursi (19592010). She used to wear a shako like this, and she made it look good. Finally, my thanks to my parents, Dr. and Caroline Schertz, both educators, who instilled in me from a very young age the desire to read, learn, ask questions, and challenge myself to continually grow intellectually.
