SUMMARY:Crinoline\, Flapper & Mini: Transformative Fashion Moments
DESCRIPTION:Women’s fashion is ever evolving\, but there have been 3 major moments of significant change: the introduction of the crinoline — an innovation that maintained shape but relieved women from the heavy petticoats of years past; the ‘flapper’ dress — an escape from corsetry and tight waists of the previous century and the discovery of women’s knees of the 1920s; and the miniskirt crazy of the 1960s — thigh skimming skirts that quickly evolved from scandalous to everyday. \nJoin Margaret Anderson\, Director of the Old Treasury Building\, on a special tour of the latest exhibition Swinging Sixties\, followed by a discussion of three transformative fashion moments\, illustrated by original costume. \n‘Crinoline\, Flapper & Mini: Transformative Fashion Moments’ is presented as part of the PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival’s Independent Programme. \nPresented as part of the ‘Swinging Sixties’ exhibition from Old Treasury Building.

SUMMARY:Material Histories: Cuttings\, Combings\, Fettlings and Flock: Fashionable Consumption and Australian Wool ‘Waste’
DESCRIPTION:We live surrounded by material things. Some are mundane and utilitarian\, others exotic objects of desire\, but all our belongings have something to say about who we are and how we live. Objects reflect both culture and history. Individually and collectively\, they shape our lives\, link us to others and connect us to the past. Yet objects are often strangely absent from accounts of past lives. This seminar series aims to unpack some of the stories that objects can tell about the present and about the past.  We also hope to provide a forum for discussion for those of us interested in material histories. We aim to cast the net widely\, with no limitations on either time or space. \n  \nAustralia’s wool industry produced vast amounts of fine fleece from the nineteenth century\, spurring clothing industries globally and driving fashionable consumption. Yet wool processing and clothes manufacturing also generated waste – products like cuttings\, combings\, fettlings and flock. Salvaged then sold to waste merchants\, these materials had a second life. This paper explores fashion and its resulting waste by drawing together the mail order catalogues produced by the Melbourne department store Foy & Gibson and the invoices it issued for the wool waste leaving its mills and clothing factories. It considers the value of these waste products in their second life. \nSpeaker: Dr Lorinda Cramer is a lecturer in Cultural Heritage and Museum Studies at Deakin University. Her work explores the worn and material histories of Australian wool\, the gendered dimensions of dress and textiles\, and historical examples of sustainable fashion and waste in museum collections. \nMaterial Histories is presented by Old Treasury Building in partnership with Deakin University and Australian Catholic University. \n  \n‘Cuttings\, Combings\, Fettlings and Flock: Fashionable Consumption and Australian Wool ‘Waste’’ is presented as part of the PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival’s Independent Programme.

SUMMARY:Rare Disease Day
DESCRIPTION:Rare Disease Day is a globally coordinated movement dedicated to rare diseases\, striving for equity in social opportunities\, healthcare\, and access to diagnosis and therapies for people living with a rare disease. \nSince its creation in 2008\, Rare Disease Day has played a crucial role in building an international rare disease community—multi-disease\, global\, and diverse\, yet united in purpose. \nRare Disease Day is observed every year on 28 February (or 29 February in leap years—the rarest day of the year). It was established and is coordinated by EURORDIS in partnership with over 70 national alliance patient organisations. The day serves as a powerful focal point\, driving advocacy efforts at local\, national\, and international levels. \nOld Treasury Building will be lit in blue\, pink\, green and purple for this event from sunrise to sunset.
