6 + Introduction We will explore the challenges and opportunities of mounting historic costume in the small museum environment We will share practical resources on preventative care of costume for collection managers We will discuss the non-verbal language of costume mounts and how they are at once a tool for preventative conservation and curatorial interpretation We will consider different methods and tools for mounting costume in relation to time, budgets, and in-house expertise We will provide an overview of the development and functionality of the Andover Figures costume-mounting system

7 + Introduction Guiding Questions Why address costume mounting? Why do store-bought dress forms not suffice? Where can we go from here? What is needed to move forward? What are my options? Which solution is right for my situation? How did we get here?

8 + The Opportunities What Stories Can Clothing Tell? Personal identity Changing social constructs Industry and economics Gender/body politics Material culture To name just a few!

9 + The Opportunities Fashion in the Museum Charles James: Beyond Fashion. Metropolitan Museum of Art, Costume Institute, 2014.

10 + The Challenges Why do store-bought dress forms not suffice? All recent anonymous examples of costume mounting from small museums, historic houses, and societies across the New England region.

11 + The Challenges Form and Function Although mounts such as mannequins and dress stands can be purchased easily, they are rarely the right size and shape for historical costume and will often need adapting to fit. Underpinnings are also essential, not only as a substitute for historical frames such as paniers and crinolines, but as a supportive foundation, controlling the shape and arrangement of trousers, skirts, and sleeves. Lara Flecker

12 + The Challenges Bridging the Divide Preparing a costume can be a daunting prospect for someone who is unacquainted with mounting techniques, but, like any craft, it is something that can be taught and learned. Unfortunately, the lack of training courses and the scarcity of information on this subject has meant that many are expected to display costumes without any advice or assistance. Lara Flecker There is an enormous disparity in the educational content of museum exhibitions, as well as in the techniques employed and the types of costume displayed. This is related to the fact that, until fairly recently, there has been little or no formal academic and professional training for costume and textile curators. Alexandra Palmer

13 + From Challenge to Opportunity Communicating the Body Within Costume Mounting Before, During, After (Victoria and Albert Museum).

14 + Understanding Historic Silhouette Clothes Make the (Wo/)Man Fashion Timeline. Kent State University Museum, 2012.

15 + Understanding Historic Silhouette Where Can We Go From Here? University of Washington Digital Fashion Plate Collectionhttp://content.lib.washington.e du/costumehistweb/ Casey Fashion Plateshttp:// Kent State Visual Fashion Resourceshttp://libguides.library.kent.ed u/c.php?g=278012&p= MET Costume Institute Collectionshttp:// search/digital-collections/costumeinstitute e-collectiononline/search?&ft=*&deptids=8

16 + Today s Landscape What Are My Options? Store Supply Warehouse $54 95 Non-archival/non customizable or quite costly to do so University Products $ Archival/customizable Dorfman $625 1,845 Archival/customizable

17 + Handout: Display Systems Checklist

18 + Cost Effectiveness What is the budget for your costume-mounting project? What funding is needed for conservation treatments in order to stabilize and ready pieces for display?

19 + Archival Safety Are the costume mounts made of archival-safe materials that will not harm the garments? What level of care is necessary for the garment?

20 + Garment Condition Does the garment have any tears, weak areas, unstable elements, stains, or fading that might make them unsuitable for display?

21 + Garment Silhouette Does the size and shape of your mount support the historic silhouette of the garment? If not, how easily can it be manipulated to correctly support it?

22 + Garment Silhouette Does the garment have a relatively simple silhouette that is straightforward to research and mount, or does it have more intricate details that require expert handling and knowledge?

23 + Versatility Is the costume mount intended for one-time use or can it be repurposed for other exhibitions and garments? What size, shape, or gender is the costume mount compatible with?

24 + Time (and Space) What kind of timeline does your exhibit need to meet? How much time can your staff set aside to safely dress each garment for display?

25 + Staff Experience Does your museum staff have working knowledge of handling textiles and basic sewing skills? How much curatorial research will be needed to accurately interpret the garments for an engaging display?

26 + Exhibition Space Will your exhibition space accommodate a full 3D form or do you require a solution for shallow space?

27 + A New Solution Our partnership grew out of: Mutual interest in addressing the challenges of exhibiting historic costume in small museums.

28 + A New Solution How Did We Get Here? Our partnership grew out of: Mutual interest in addressing the challenges of exhibiting historic costume in small museums.

29 + A New Solution How Did We Get Here? Desire to empower museum professionals and historic societies in a manner that did not sacrifice archival safety standards, museum resources, or the educational value of the visitor experience.

30 + A New Solution How Did We Get Here? Kate s graduate research and capstone project that investigated the need for new tools and expertise to support small museum professionals working with fragile costume collections.

31 + A New Solution How Did We Get Here? An MTS client need for a cost-effective but safe way to reinstall the costume in their small museum or historic house on a rotating basis.

32 + A New Solution Andover Figures Andover Figures is a costume-mounting system that includes: 10 different archival forms A kit for creating any historic silhouette Show fabric comes in a variety of skin tones Instructional booklet Hands-on training

33 + A New Solution Andover Figures 100% archival materials Manikins compatible with any 5/8-inch pole Suspension forms hang from a bracket or stand Customizable and reusable Priced between $150 and $250 dollars
