In our last podcast episode, Lauren and Abby sat down with Dr. Robyne Calvert to discuss all things related to Artistic and Aesthetic Dress, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Margaret MacDonald, the Glasgow School of Art, and Glasgow's own unique spin on clothing during the Edwardian Era. This week, we get to actually exaDaisy Anges McGlashamine the original garments that the Glasgow School of Art Archives brought out for us. Featuring a gorgeous embroidered velvet collar, velvet and fur capelet, and a *stunning* Edwardian Dress that was also a Suffragette Dress, this episode is just brimming with gorgeous embroidered goodness! We still dream fondly of the collars and dress, and so we hope you enjoy this episode! Again, we want to extend our sincerest thanks to Dr. Robyne Calvert and the Glasgow School of Art Archives for their time and generosity. ------------------------------------------------------------------ If you'd like to read more about the original garments we looked at, you can find them here: Embroidered Velvet Collar by a Student taught by Ann Macbeth: https://gsaarchives.net/collections/index.php/nmc-0420 Fur and Velvet Embroidered Capelet by Grace Melvin: https://gsaarchives.net/collections/index.php/gm-9 Embroidered Silk Edwardian Dress by Daisy Anges McGlashan: https://gsaarchives.net/collections/index.php/nmc-0432 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ann Macbeth's Books (Free!)
