Zusammenfassung: | "Material things transformed the lives of ordinary English men and women between the restoration of Charles II in 1660 and the Great Reform Act of 1832. Tea and sugar, the fruits of British mercantile and colonial expansion, transformed their diets. Pendulum clocks and Staffordshire pottery, the products of British manufacturing ingenuity, enriched their homes. But it was in their clothes that ordinary people enjoyed the greatest transformation in their material lives. In calico gowns and muslin neckerchiefs, in wigs and silver-plated shoe buckles they flaunted the fruits of the nation's commercial prosperity. This book retrieves the unknown story of ordinary consumers in eighteenth-century England and what they wore."--BOOK JACKET. |

EVERYDAY
JASHION IN
EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY
ENGLAND
John Styles
Material
things transformed the lives of ordinary
English men and women between the restoration
of Charles II in
1660
and the Great Reform Act of
1832.
Tea and sugar, the fruits of British mercantile
and colonial expansion, transformed their diets.
Pendulum clocks and Staffordshire pottery, the
products of British manufacturing ingenuity,
enriched their homes. But it was in their clothes
that ordinary people enjoyed the greatest
transformation in their material lives. In calico
gowns and muslin neckerchiefs, in wigs and silver-
plated shoe buckles they flaunted the fruits of the
nation s commercial prosperity. This book retrieves
the unknown story of ordinary consumers in
eighteenth-century England and what they wore.
Ownership of new fabrics and new fashions was
not confined to the rich. It extended far down
the social scale to the small farmers, day labourers
and petty tradespeople who formed a majority
of the population. By using unfamiliar kinds of
evidence
—
from descriptions of stolen clothes in
the records of criminal trials to small pieces of
fabric left at the London Foundling Hospital
by impoverished mothers who abandoned their
babies -John Styles reveals that humble men and
women could be beneficiaries of the new
commercial society arising in eighteenth-century
England, and not just its victims. Their everyday
fashion was rooted in a world of popular custom,
of fairs and holidays, of parish feasts and harvest
homes. Popular custom, often portrayed as a
conservative force hostile to commercial
innovation, emerges as the midwife of popular
consumerism.
John Styles is Research Professor in History at
the University of Hertfordshire. Previously Head of
Graduate Studies at the Victoria and Albert
Museum, he developed the historical themes for
theV&A s acclaimed new British Galleries
1500-
1900,
which opened in
2001,
and co-authored
Design and the Decorative Arts: Britain
1500
to igoo,
the major book published to complement the
Galleries. A graduate of Cambridge University, he
has taught at the universities of Cambridge,
Bradford, Bath and Bristol. He specialises in the
history of eighteenth-century Britain, especially the
study of manufacturing, consumption and design.
