How did the Research Go?

The 19th century is such a vast and intresting one that I found the reserch incredibly intresting however it did take longer than I expected because there was so much of it and such a varied amount. After spending a day on the internet looking at images and info about the century I decided books were far clearer and far more precice to work from and also I would not have to print out lots of paper but refer to my own books and those in the costume hub. I feel I got a reasonable amount of reserch from a variety of books, including :-

- Arnold, J. (1984). Patterns of Fashion 1660-1860. Drama Book Publishers, New York.
- Arnold, J. (1984). Patterns of Fashion 1860-1930. Drama Book Publishers, New York.
- Bradfield, N. (1968). Costume in Detail 1730-1930. Eric Dobby Publishing, UK.
- Cunnington, W. (1937). English Women’s Clothing in the Nineteenth Century. Faber and Faber, London.
- Waugh, N. (1968). The Cut of Women’s Clothes 1600-1930. Faber and Faber, London.

but not too much reserch that I was overwhelmed by it. I hope the pieces I have got are useful throughtout this project and in the future if I do the 19th century again. I have put the reserch in a folder that I will keep at uni however I will not hand it in as not all the images are relivent and I feel that posting a couple on my blog will be sufficient evidence that I have done the necessary reserch needed for this project, also it does not state in my learning agreement that I will hand in my reserch.
