O que você diria ao descobrir que um antigo motivo de bullying escolar virou alvo de desejo nas redes sociais? Algo que te fez sofrer com apelidos e brincadeirinhas em que todos viam graça menos você? Agora imagine descobrir que essa característica que povoa seus antigos traumas virou um novo trend de beleza, digno das páginas do New York Times. O jornal americano conta que milhares de pessoas estão se submetendo a picadas de agulhas embebidas em pigmentos para ganhar sardas no nariz e nas bochechas. Ou seja, o antigo motivo de tormento escolar se tornou a mais recente obsessão do TikTok. Ao longo da história, as sardas frequentemente foram vistas como imperfeições. Mas essa visão mudou entre meados e o final do século 20, quando um bronzeado –e as sardas que o acompanhavam— viraram um símbolo de status, algo que assinalava uma vida de lazer, comentou Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell, historiadora da moda especializada no período moderno inicial. Na década de 1990, graças à modelo Twiggy e à cantora Jane Birkin, além do movimento cultural "youthquake" dos anos 1960, as sardas começaram a ser associadas a uma aparência juvenil. No início da década de 2000, passaram a ser bem-vistas nas passarelas e campanhas de publicidade. E, em 2018, a decisão de Meghan Markle de adotar um look mais natural em seu casamento com o príncipe Harry levou a uma onda de imitadoras buscando adotar as sardas. O Mulheres Reais vai ao ar às segundas-feiras, a partir das 8h, no Jornal Eldorado. O podcast é apresentado por Luciana Garbin e Carolina Ercolin e está disponível em todas as plataformas de áudio.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week, I explore the life of Elizabeth Bathory, the infamous Hungarian countess who is widely considered to be history's most notorious female serial killer. The legend surrounding Elizabeth, aka Countess Dracula, or The Blood Countess, remains that she was a bloodthirsty killer who tortured and murdered hundreds of young girls (mainly peasants), bathing in their blood in the belief that it would keep her young and beautiful. While it is impossible to know the exact number of The Blood Countess' victims, it is estimated that she may have been responsible for the deaths of up to 650 girls. Elizabeth Bathory remains one of the most intriguing and terrifying figures in history, a woman whose legend has endured for centuries. While the exact truth of her crimes may never be known, the impact she had on history is undeniable. Her story is a reminder of the darkest aspects of human nature and the power of legend to shape our understanding of the past.If you liked what you heard today, give the podcast a like, review, and subscribe.

On February 29, 1968, Lady Bird Johnson hosted the first–and last–White House Fashion Show. The fashion show, intended both to highlight the fourth largest industry in the United States and to promote domestic tourism, inadvertently became one of the many PR missteps of the Johnson administration, as it occurred in the midst of the Tet Offensive. Just one month later LBJ announced on national television that he would not seek reelection, and today the fashion show is largely forgotten. Joining me to help us understand how and why Lady Bird Johnson ended up hosting a White House Fashion Show, and why it was never repeated, is fashion history Dr. Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell, author of Red, White, and Blue on the Runway: The 1968 White House Fashion Show and the Politics of American Style.

In the UK, just over half of people above the age of 16 are married. Whether in a registry office, a place of worship or a remote beach somewhere sunny, each of these couples will have had to do some form of planning.

While the story of women's liberation has often been framed by the growing acceptance of pants over the twentieth century, the most important and influential female fashions of the era featured skirts. Suffragists and soldiers marched in skirts; the heroines of the Civil Rights Movement took a stand in skirts. Frida Kahlo and Georgia O'Keeffe revolutionized modern art and Marie Curie won two Nobel Prizes in skirts. When NASA put a man on the moon, “the computer wore a skirt,” in the words of one of those computers, mathematician Katherine G. Johnson. As women made strides towards equality in the vote, the workforce, and the world at large, their wardrobes evolved with them. They did not need to "wear the pants" to be powerful or progressive; the dress itself became modern as designers like Mariano Fortuny, Coco Chanel, Jean Patou, and Diane von Furstenberg redefined femininity for a new era. Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell's Skirts: Fashioning Modern Femininity in the Twentieth Century (St. Martin's Press, 2022) looks at the history of twentieth-century womenswear through the lens of game-changing styles like the little black dress and the Bar Suit, as well as more obscure innovations like the Taxi dress or the Pop-Over dress, which came with a matching potholder. These influential garments illuminate the times in which they were first worn―and the women who wore them―while continuing to shape contemporary fashion and even opening the door for a genderfluid future of skirts. At once an authoritative work of history and a delightfully entertaining romp through decades of fashion, Skirts charts the changing fortunes, freedoms, and aspirations of women themselves.

Queer suffragists were central to the women's suffrage movement in the United States from its earliest days. However, in a movement that placed great importance on public image in service of the goal of achieving the vote, queer suffragists who pushed the boundaries of “respectability” were sometimes ostracized, and others hid their queerness, or had it erased by others. Joining me to help us learn about queer suffragists is historian Dr. Wendy Rouse, Associate Professor in History at San Jose State University. Dr. Rouse is the author of a new book from New York University Press, Public Faces, Secret Lives: A Queer History of the Women's Suffrage Movement.

So much is trending in pop culture news. We have questions — and answers. First up: Rapper Young Thug was indicted with 27 other members of his crew for gang related charges. Then: What's the latest in the Johnny Depp. v. Amber Heard trial? We'll catch you up on the highlights since Heard took the stand. And: Why were people mad at Kim Kardashian for wearing the iconic Marilyn Monroe dress to the Met Gala? A fashion historian gives us the tea. Next: What does being “wrongfully detained” mean in the case of WNBA star Brittney Griner? We called up a sports reporter to explain. But our biggest question of the week: What's going on at Netflix? Lately, things don't look too great over at the streaming giant. Last month, the company announced it's lost 200,000 subscribers this year, and expects to lose more. Its stock continues to drop, costing the company billions. The prices for subscriptions have gone up, and there's also been real talk about a crackdown on password sharing — meaning no more using ex's account. And just two weeks ago, Netflix layed off a number of employees — including many women of color — from their fan site Tudum, and others on their marketing team. The streaming giant has long been ahead of the game, but is it finally falling behind the competition in the streaming wars? We chat with two reporters who break down what all of these changes at Netflix mean for our queues and our wallets. You'll hear from: Dr. Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell, award-winning fashion historian, curator, and journalist Meredith Cash, sports reporter for Insider Rani Molla, senior data reporter at Recode Dawn Chmielewski, U.S. entertainment business correspondent at Reuters and co-author of "Binge Times" Want more Skimm?

In this week's episode: Is there any substance to the government's new drugs agenda? In The Spectator this week Fraser Nelson writes the cover story on the government's new 10 years drugs plan and finds that while on the surface this seems like a new war on drugs, it might actually have some thoughtful and effective policies buried within it. Fraser is joined on the podcast by Christopher Snowden, the head of lifestyle economics at the Institute of Economic Affairs. (00:52) Also this week: Can Islam save Britain's churches? Britain has for a long time now has been becoming a more and more secular nation. This has meant that many churches that used to have full pews are at risk of turning into luxury flats or another Tesco Express. But in this week's Spectator, Tanjil Rashid highlights another destiny for these buildings. Conversion into mosques. In the piece, he argues these buildings should continue being a place of faith even if that faith is not Christian. He joins Lara along with Christopher Howse, the author of many a book about religious history and architecture. (13:46) And finally: Are we witnessing the twilight of the necktie? Lockdowns meant we all got used to working from home, which resulted in a much more casual dress code. It feels very strange to wear a suit around your own house. But Jonathan Miller is worried that this may lead to the end of the necktie, a fashion accessory he believes is an important symbol of traditional masculinity. He joins Lara to expand on that idea along with fashion historian Dr. Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell.

Before the pandemic, we were the show that invited scholars, makers, and professionals out to brunch for informal conversations about their work, and we look forward to being that show again one day. But for now, we’re recording remotely to maintain physical distancing.It’s still a pretty fantastic job.This is our season 4 finale, and we’re taking a look back—not at the history of this podcast, but at the history of fashion, and our guide is a great one.Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell is an award-winning fashion historian, curator, and journalist and a 2020–21 National Endowment for the Humanities Public Scholar. Her work has appeared in The Atlantic, The Washington Post, Politico, and The Wall Street Journal, and she is the author of three books, including Worn on This Day: The Clothes That Made History, which had its origins as a Twitter account and was published in 2019 by Running Press.While we had a lot of questions for her about Worn on This Day—how she found an article of clothing tied to every day of the year, what kind of history this approach allowed her to write, why she picked what she did for the September 11th entry—we also talked about the distinctive role fashion plays in the human story.We asked Kimberly about her NEH project, as well, and learned a little bit about American fashion designer Chester Weinberg, whom she’s hoping to reintroduce to a large audience. And then there was her most recent book, The Way We Wed: A Global History of Wedding Fashion, a sequel of sorts to Worn on This Day.Fun fact there: The white wedding dress? Not as traditional as you might think.LINKSKimberly’s Books: Worn on This Day: The Clothes That Made History and The Way We Wed: A Global History of Wedding FashionWorn on This Day Twitter: @WornOnThisDayEpisode Transcript
A new, bold generation of women leaders is ascending in America. They haven’t entirely ditched the pantsuit, but they have embraced eye-catching colors, up-and-coming designers, and statement-making clothes and accessories. Which means these women have also opened themselves up to the risks—and rewards—inherent in such choices. This past election cycle had no shortage of iconic fashion moments, from Vice President Kamala Harris accepting victory in suffragist white to Michelle Obama's "VOTE" necklace (by Los Angeles designer BYCHARI) going viral. Meanwhile, the fashion industry itself is being called on to take stronger political stances and right wrongs, past and present, particularly when it comes to issues of race, labor, and gender. Are we entering a new era of intertwined fashion and politics—and if so, what does it mean for these industries and institutions, and for the rest of us? What can the history of women and fashion in the political arena teach us about the perils and potential of statement-making—and sometimes barrier-breaking—style? Studio One Eighty Nine co-founder and president Abrima Erwiah, fashion designer Bibhu Mohapatra, and fashion historian and author Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell visited Zócalo to discuss the past and present of women’s fashion in American government, and what’s next. This Zócalo/Natural History Museum of Los Angeles panel discussion was moderated by Vanessa Friedman, fashion director and chief fashion critic at the New York Times.

I wanted to have Kimberly on the show to discuss fashion history because it’s a different kind of “pre-loved” -- we love these clothes we see in museums in a different way from their original owners. We talk about fashion history in a museum context, how a piece of clothing goes from being “vintage” and owned by a person to belonging to a museum collection, and some -- of the many! -- fascinating stories of pieces she’s worked with.
