Bustles to Bras: 200 Yrs of Feminine Silhouette

 

Lewes Public Library

111 Adams Avenue

 

Celebrate Women's History week as Karen Jessee presents this hour-long visual media event spanning 1780-1980. This lively show explains how women went from bustles to bell bottoms, & why the flapper was the modern women. We also peek underneath to see the many ways women are padde​d, pinched, poufed and cinched. Expect a bit of audience participation. Paid for in part by a grant from the DE Humanities Forum.
