Costume-Con 28 Programming
Our Featured Presenter:

Robin Netherton is a costume historian specializing in Western European clothing of the twelfth through fifteenth centuries. Since 1982, she has given lectures and workshops on practical aspects of medieval costume and on costume as an approach to social history, art history, and literature. A journalist by training, she also works as a professional editor.

Robin will be presenting on Saturday and Sunday of the convention. Her topics include:

Approaches to the Fourteenth-Century Fitted Dress: This session includes two lectures:

“The Gothic Fitted Dress” looks at the fitted fashion popular throughout Europe in the late 14th and early 15th centuries (often called the “cotehardie”). A detailed analysis shows the various versions and uses of this style, how it evolved from earlier unfitted fashions, and how it helped lead to the more structured fashions of the 15th and 16th centuries.

“The Greenland Gored Gown” focuses on the finds from the 14th-century cemetery at Herjolfsnes, Greenland, and re-examines some common assumptions about these garments in light of overlooked details in the original study report, the cultural context of the Greenland colony, and the likely methods of clothing construction used by the Greenlanders.
Format: Lecture Length: 3 hrs.

The Problem of Women’s Heraldic Dress: The image of the medieval noblewoman wearing a gown that displays a full-body coat-of-arms has long been popular among costume historians, theater designers, artists, and re-enactors. However, an analysis of historical documents and images raises significant questions about how such clothing was made and used. This lecture traces the development of historians’ understanding of women’s heraldic dress and examines the options for the modern costumer faced with reconciling the popular image with the historical evidence.
Format: Lecture Length: 1 hr.

When Medieval Meets Victorian: The Roots of Modern Costume Sources: Too often, today’s costume sources present “facts” about medieval and Renaissance costume that are actually misinterpretations dating from the Victorian era. This lecture traces the development of modern costume scholarship and examines the motives and methods of 19th-century costume historians. Armed with this information, 21st-century costumers can learn how to recognize — and compensate for — Victorian influence in current sources.
Format: Lecture Length: 2 hrs.
