Speaker Series: Bustles to Bras
Join Karen Jessee, professional speaker and visiting scholar, as she combines humor, history, and fun in this presentation that takes you from hoops to halter tops, from bustles to bras, and includes 200 years of the influences that led to the most outrageous changes in the feminine silhouette. And as there is no fashion without foundation, take a peek underneath to see how woman were padded and pinched, poofed and cinched into the latest styles.
