Day ensemble • Silk taffeta • 1870-72 • The FIDM Museum (Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising), Los Angeles, California

About 1868, the crinoline silhouette went out of style. The smooth, distinctly bell-like shape of the crinoline supported skirt began to change form, with the fullness moving towards the back of the skirt. This new skirt shape required a different kind of understructure: the bustle. Essentially a cage crinoline cut in half, the bustle supported the back of the skirt, while leaving the front unsupported. In the early years of the 1870s, the bustle usually extended from the waist to about the mid-calf.

The bustle was fashionable until about 1875, when it went out of style as skirts were fitted closer to both the front and back of the body. Beginning about 1883, the bustle enjoyed another round of popularity until finally going entirely out of fashion about 1890.

Bustle • British • c. 1871 • Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute

This 1871 bustle is made of metal wire fully encased in cotton fabric. Of the means employed to force the projecting hoops toward the back of the body, the most common were interior fabric tapes or a panel that lay against the back of the body. This solution was not unlike that used to create eighteenth-century panniers. – – The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Of the five dresses in the above fashion plate, three feature strongly contrasting colors – a green and black walking dress, a purple walking dress with black trim and a pale cream house or walking dress trimmed with black. Note that the dresses at the far left and far right feature scalloped trim similar to the green trimmed scallops on the photographed dress.

Now Experiencing: College Tours

My sister, and my cousin, are in college right now. Honestly, they are doing college the way I wished I had done college. As I am no longer a student, always in my mind but not stuck to one institution, I am helping them both and getting to relive my college experience through them.

My Background:

I did very well in elementary school, middle school, and high school. I graduated a scholar with honors from Edison High School. Early in my high school experience, I fell in love with FIDM. I remember, I was in a class researching colleges and looked at all the flags on the wall and at the end was a boot. What the boot? I have a very good knack for design and fashion and building and branding. I got accepted my 2nd year of high school. My first year of college was a massive slap in the face. I should of switched majors to marketing, but I stuck to it. I use parts of my degree today, but I have a couple of regrets on how I went about my college experience. What I would do differently if I could:

I would try a class in high school or even community college during summer and see if you really like it or the idea of it.

I would really shop around more, and ask students that actually went there what is true and not true about what the college claims to do.

At the end of the day, I use my college not in a direct way-any job I have had that was utilizing my direct experience got me fired. Funny I know. I ended up falling into the family legacy of real estate and have done well for myself all things considered.

My College Experience (Living Vicariously):

I graduated college in 2012, that is now 12 years ago. My younger family members are currently in community college. One wants to get into accounting and the other wants to get into a plant major. So, when my sister was like, "Tour colleges?" "Hell Yeah!". I skipped that step, at least actually comparing colleges. We toured 3, me with two different majors in mind:

UCI: University of California Irvine-Now, I am sure this is a great school. But to me and my sister-this felt like a bad movie set of a movie we did not want to watch. Huge campus, walking tour of almost 2 hours. Growing and under construction too. I was ok with it for my cousin, they had a great looking greenhouse. But I was meh for my sister. We had to pay for parking.

CPP: Cal Poly Pomona: I had my BIL friend graduate from here and already knew of it and was so excited for this one after Irvine. It is a great fit for either accounting or plants. It was so pretty. It was a very good price, not much more than Fullerton but less than Irvine. I believe parking was free for this one.

UCF: University of California Fullerton-We were actually going to just go with Pomona but an associate of mine said to at least consider Fullerton. For accounting, the piece of paper is so much more important-plus all the aspects that modern employers demand of young working youth. Fullerton is in a great location, good size school, good budget, and so much bang for your buck. You had to pay for parking.

Why were we looking at these? These are the schools that they can get into with an AA (special for transfer). Things I was considering was: how likely were they going to be involved in activities, the people that would be around them, the education itself, the location compared to where they live, the price. I love Fullerton for my sister and Pomona for my cousin. It was also kind of funny, kind of sad, but so many parents were there with their kids for the tours! I don't remember mine doing that, and me and my sister were usually the only non parent child group. But I had a blast doing it, and I suggest everyone shop around when making a decision that will change, for better or worse, the rest of your life. I would gladly do that for anyone that needs it again!
