    Un été chaud, un bikini chaud

    July 22, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Le 1er juillet 1946 une bombe atomique de 23 000 tonnes est lâchée à neuf heures du matin sur l’atoll de Bikini, situé dans le sud du Pacifique et pratiquement inconnu jusqu’alors. Elle fait sombrer une bonne demi-douzaine de navires de guerre désarmés et en endommage sévèrement au moins autant. Les conditions atmosphériques sont idéales pour le test, le ciel est découvert et il règne un calme plat.

    Underwear and Fashion: Lingerie, corsetry and hosiery

    March 22, 2022 / 0 Comments

    The authors correlate lingerie with emancipation, querying whether it asserts newfound freedoms or simply adjusts to conform to changing social values.

    May 11, 2021 / 0 Comments

    Men’s fashion, particularly the trends involving undergarments, was once reserved for the elite; today it has become democratised, clear proof of social progress. Mirroring the evolution of society’s values, the history of underwear also highlights the continuous, dancing exchange that exists between women’s styles and men’s fashion.

    The Story of Lingerie (Part 2)

    February 24, 2021 / 0 Comments

    Many women indulge in lingerie to please men. Yet, ever since Antiquity, women have always kept lingerie hidden away under outer garments. Thus, lingerie must be more than erotic bait. Authors Muriel Barbier and Shazia Boucher have researched iconography to explore the relationship of lingerie to society, the economy and the corridors of intimacy.
