- Abstract
Through object-based case studies of garments from the ancient past through to the 21st century, Margaret Maynard reveals the countless ways the temporal is woven into our attire. From the physical effects of age on garments to their changing cultural significance, time and fashion are inextricably linked. Every garment has its own pace and narrative, and every dress practice is rich with temporal associations: ‘wearing’ time in the form wristwatches, marking key moments in time from marriage to death, ‘defying’ time with beauty products, preserving and re-imagining time through vintage, and concepts of ‘timeless’ and ‘classic’ styles. This ground-breaking book presents a complete rethinking of the study of global fashion history, revealing the complex nature of changing fashion when viewed through the lens of time and challenging Eurocentric approaches such as the periodization of style and the arbitrary division of ‘western’ and ‘non-western’ fashion. Fashion in Time is essential reading for students and scholars of fashion and dress history, material culture studies, cultural anthropology, archaeology and related fields.

- Abstract
Libertine practices have long been associated with transgression and social deviance. This innovative book is the first to focus fully on the relationship between libertinism as a social phenomenon and as a form of fashion. Taking the reader from early modernity to the present day, Adam Geczy and Vicki Karaminas reveal how the connection between clothing and the taboo, the erotic, and the forbidden is at the heart of “libertine fashion”. Moving from the decadent courts of Charles II and Louis XV to the catwalks of the 21st century, Libertine Fashion examines literary and sartorial figures ranging from the Marquis de Sade and Lord Byron to Oscar Wilde, Josephine Baker, Colette, and Madonna. Focusing on libertinism as a sartorial practice and identity, this book traces the genealogy of the concept through the proto feminists of the English Reformation, the hedonistic decadents of the fin de siècle, and the Flappers of the Roaring 20s. The historical arc traverses the 1970s era of punk and glam, the shapeshifting personae of David Bowie, and the “disciplinary regimes” of Jean-Paul Gaultier. Looking at libertine practices and appearances with fresh eyes, this bracing and original book affords many new insights into transgressive style, and of the relationship between sexuality and clothing. Accessible and thoroughly researched, Libertine Fashion uses a multidisciplinary approach that draws on historical literature, film, fashion, philosophy, and popular culture. Offering a historical and philosophical grounding in contemporary forms of identity and dress, it is essential reading for students and scholars of fashion, gender, sexuality, and cultural studies.

Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of dexamethasone intravitreal implant (Ozurdex, DEX implant) 0.7 and 0.35 mg in the treatment of patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).Design: Two randomized, multicenter, masked, sham-controlled, phase III clinical trials with identical protocols were conducted. Data were pooled for analysis.Participants: Patients (n = 1048) with DME, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20/50 to 20/200 Snellen equivalent, and central retinal thickness (CRT) of ≥300 μm by optical coherence tomography.Methods: Patients were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to study treatment with DEX implant 0.7 mg, DEX implant 0.35 mg, or sham procedure and followed for 3 years (or 39 months for patients treated at month 36) at ≤40 scheduled visits. Patients who met retreatment eligibility criteria could be retreated no more often than every 6 months.Main Outcome Measures: The predefined primary efficacy endpoint for the United States Food and Drug Administration was achievement of ≥15-letter improvement in BCVA from baseline at study end. Safety measures included adverse events and intraocular pressure (IOP).Results: Mean number of treatments received over 3 years was 4.1, 4.4, and 3.3 with DEX implant 0.7 mg, DEX implant 0.35 mg, and sham, respectively. The percentage of patients with ≥15-letter improvement in BCVA from baseline at study end was greater with DEX implant 0.7 mg (22.2%) and DEX implant 0.35 mg (18.4%) than sham (12.0%; P ≤ 0.018). Mean average reduction in CRT from baseline was greater with DEX implant 0.7 mg (−111.6 μm) and DEX implant 0.35 mg (−107.9 μm) than sham (−41.9 μm; P < 0.001). Rates of cataract-related adverse events in phakic eyes were 67.9%, 64.1%, and 20.4% in the DEX implant 0.7 mg, DEX implant 0.35 mg, and sham groups, respectively. Increases in IOP were usually controlled with medication or no therapy; only 2 patients (0.6%) in the DEX implant 0.7 mg group and 1 (0.3%) in the DEX implant 0.35 mg group required trabeculectomy.Conclusions: The DEX implant 0.7 mg and 0.35 mg met the primary efficacy endpoint for improvement in BCVA. The safety profile was acceptable and consistent with previous reports.

Sparto, a perennial broom, grows wild in the mountainous and semi-mountainous regions of the Mediterranean. Throughout antiquity Greeks processed the plant for its fibers, which they hand braided and loom wove into rope and textiles. Archaeological material and ancient testimonia demonstrate the extensive use of sparto as a raw material in Greek culture over a long period. Nevertheless, scholars consistently overlook the widespread exploitation of sparto in the manufacture of everyday objects in antiquity. However, the plant's importance may be properly assessed by modern Greeks. My field research in the Western Peloponesos reveals that the utilization and processing of sparto in recent times follows that described in ancient sources. The earliest archaeological evidence from sparto comes from a late, third-century (BC) Neolithic cave in Spain and includes various articles of clothing. The earliest Greek evidence comes from Homer who refers to ships' cords as “sparto” in the Illiad. Thereafter, a ...

31. Marriage and Dowry Customs of the Rabari of Kutch: Evolving Traditions.

- Abstract
This chapter delineates the marriage customs of the Rabari nomads of Kachchh, Gujarat. It identifies the significance of the wedding dress, and analyses changes to dress over the past 15 years. By focussing on marriage, it considers how the material culture of rituals and expressions of faith reflects re-negotiations of Rabari identity. This is the first time that the culture of India’s nomads has been analysed by cross-referencing socio-economic and religious practices, political policy, personal testimony and material expressions. In this respect, it augments the canon on socio-religious practices in India and material culture linked to those practices explored in the “great tradition” of temple complexes, devotional paintings and sculpture but is distinct from these because of its emphasis on oral history and vernacular religious expression. Offering a unique perspective on marriage in India, this chapter analyses the nature and substance of a Rabari dowry and reveals the complexities of gift-giving on the subcontinent. It identifies the symbolic significance of dowry for Rabaris and compares this to the role of textiles more broadly in South Asia. It also makes explicit the economic value of textiles in the property transfers of marriage and how this aspect of textiles features in debates amongst Rabaris about re-shaping individual and community identity.
