Could tuberculosis truly shape our understanding of beauty? Prepare to unravel the eerie yet intriguing connection between this historical disease and the evolution of beauty standards across centuries. With Christina and Camille at the helm, we guide you through the pale, waif-like ideals of the 17th and 18th centuries, deeply entwined with TB's impact. Drawing from Carolyn Day's insightful work “Consumptive Chic,” we discuss how TB's haunting image inspired Victorian fashion and even shaped modern grooming habits, particularly influencing the preference for clean-shaven looks among men.Explore the curious fusion of fashion, health, and societal perceptions as we dissect how TB influenced women's fashion choices. From the pointed corsets and makeup that mimicked the consumptive look, to the cultural shifts driven by food accessibility and public health initiatives, we reveal how a medical condition could transform clothing norms. Our conversation even takes a lighthearted turn, contemplating how TB sparked an enduring fascination with women's shoes, leaving a lasting legacy on shopping habits.Finally, we venture into the romanticized allure of TB during the 18th and 19th centuries, where the disease was bizarrely perceived as a beauty enhancer. Even Lord Byron used it in his courting repertoire! As we compare photographic studies of TB patients to healthy individuals, we set the stage for an upcoming discussion on the connection between vampire lore and the disease porphyria.

In her new book, Consumptive Chic: A History of Beauty, Fashion, and Disease (Bloomsbury, 2017), Carolyn Day tracks the relationship between dress, appearance, and tuberculosis in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Blending the histories of medicine and fashion, she charts multiple and often contested understandings of consumption and its socio-cultural significance. Day’s focus on experiences of upper- and middle-class women highlights gendered critiques of fashionable activities that allegedly led to the disease: riding, dancing, “impractical” dress. Emerging alongside these criticisms was the belief that some sufferers acquired desirable characteristics of feminine beauty—what Day terms an “aesthetics of consumption”—via the incurable illness. Complemented by rich case studies and illustrations, Consumptive Chic reveals the entangled history of ill health and beauty, as eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century aesthetics took an especially lethal turn. Carolyn Day is an Associate Professor of History at Furman University, where she teaches courses on modern European history, modern British history, and the history of medicine. Jess Clark is an Assistant Professor of History at Brock University (St. Catharines, Ontario). She is currently writing a history of the beauty business in Victorian London.

Whether or not she actually reached the airwaves is yet to be determined, but there are four episodes in circulation, each five minutes in length. Their brevity would suggest they are audition shows, but I can't prove that either. Carolyn Day is both the star and narrator of each program. She and her father, Randolph Day, are detectives and her boyfriend is Larry Bixby, a homicide lieutenant of an unnamed metropolitan city. There are no cast credits nor can I identify any of the actors by their voices.
