There is an obvious problem with the history of dress in all
of its displays and that is, although textiles survive from early
periods and cultures of recorded history, actual garments do
not provide an uninterrupted flow of evidence across the
same long time-span. Therefore, to give the study of dress equal
significance to other areas such as architecture, painting,
prints, drawings and sculpture, it was (a) inevitable that these
other areas would provide much of the source material. The
history of surviving dress really only starts in the 17th century,
and like all artefacts described as fine or decorative art, is a
highly visual subject. However, unlike most of the categories
of collection and study that make up those areas, it is fluid
rather than static. Garments should be seen in (b) movement
on a human body, not frozen on a display figure. This is one
of the many difficulties when curating collections of costume
and also why some modern writers find costume collections
physically and intellectually (c) lifeless. Fortunately, in the
period after 1660, when more items of dress survive to enrich
our understanding of the history of the subject, there are
also many painted, printed, photographed and filmed sources
of evidence of people in clothing, caught in movement.
Often a variety of different types of illustrative examples will
(d) provide evidence about how a garment was worn within
the period in which it was made. Without the information
contained in art in all of its forms, from drawing to sculpture,
it is (e) unlikely that displays of historic dress would be
awkward imitations of the intentions of their original makers
and owners.
