Synopsis
Dressmaking, considered a natural extension of women's proper work in the home, was a common and lucrative employment for women in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It afforded creative expression, prestige in the community, and even the possibility of financial independence. Yet as entrepreneurs, dressmakers faced unique business pressures, and with the advent of department stores and widespread mass production of women's clothing, most were forced out of business.Coinciding with the exhibition Cynthia Amnéus organized for the Cincinnati Art Museum, this work examines the nineteenth-century ideology of women's separate sphere, the early feminist movement, women in the workplace, and dressmakers as artisans and professionals. More than 140 stunning custom-made garments, historical photographs, and dressmakers' labels document the superb artistic and technical skill of the women who produced fashionable dress in Cincinnati from 1877 to 1922.Bracketing Amnéus's incisive study are essays by Anne Bissonnette on the eccentric tea gown, Marla Miller on the pitfalls of researching women's cultural work, and Shirley Teresa Wajda on the dressmakers' wealthy clientele. In all, A Separate Sphere offers a careful look into the lives of women struggling with ideological boundaries. Chronicling choices made by and imposed on both working-class women and their affluent counterparts, it reveals how these women managed to enhance their prescribed sphere for themselves and for the community at large., Coinciding with the exhibition Cynthia Amnéus organized for the Cincinnati Art Museum, this work examines the nineteenth-century ideology of women's separate sphere, the early feminist movement, women in the workplace, and dressmakers as artisans and professionals.

    These books are in fabulous condition! Each one is exactly as described. We had some confusion regarding which books were included, but the seller worked with me immediately to resolve it. Great value for the books, packaged well. Highly recommended, great seller and great communication.

    Item received was not quite what was described by seller in listing. I contacted seller to request a 50% refund. Within hours, kind seller responded with a complete refund which did not entail my returning the item. Excellent customer service and the item was securely packaged and quickly sent. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller in future.

    Really lovely copy, exactly as described. I both read & collect hardbacks & this met all expectations. Seller responded really quickly with complete answers & additional supporting photos,going that extra mile. Ebay sadly has too many booksellers who have no regard for buyers, who lazily use 'stock' photos & disclaimers in their listings. This seller uses genuine photos of the actual item for sale & that is to their immense credit. I cannot recommend them highly enough. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
