I am thrilled to report that the research that I have been working on with Brooke Welborn for years is finally available! Dress, the journal of the Costume Society of America, has just come out with our article on the robe à la polonaise.
I have written up a summary of our findings as promised:
The 18th Century Robe à la Polonaise: Research Summary
If you’d like to read a full copy of the article, you can get it one of two ways (if you’re not already a subscriber to Dress):
1. Find a local library with a print copy of, or electronic access to, the journal Dress. WorldCat provides a list of libraries who subscribe to the journal.
2. Alternately, you can purchase a PDF of the article from Ingenta Connect.
I’m super proud, and hope you find the information useful!
So excited for this!! I’ll be heading to the library later this week for sure!
How wonderful to have an article appear in Dress! Super topic, too. Have to head off to Interlibrary Loan.
Thanks so much for the summary,
Natalie
I got my copy in the mail earlier this week. I skimmed it and it looks AMAZING. I can’t wait to sit down and digest it over the weekend.
Very exciting! Going to have to hunt down a library.
