50. Fashion in Focus: Mutton Sleeve
EWelcome to the Unravel minisode series Fashion in Focus where we tell you about the brief history of a garment, accessory, or textile. In this FIF, Joy focuses on the mutton sleeve. A mutton sleeve was originally called a “leg o mutton”, or gigot in French, because of its resemblance to a lambs foot, calf, and thigh. This type of sleeve is balloon-like and loose on the upper arm but tapers on the forearm and/or wrist. The design has been adopted and revived throughout fashion history. Image: E. M.

Waller Gallery is pleased to present its first show featuring Nia Hampton’s first solo exhibition. Entitled “Drapetomania” the exhibition is an expansive documentation of the artist’s photography within Afro-Latino communities. Drapetomania was once a medical diagnosis used to explain why enslaved Africans ran away from the plantation. This was a racist and fabricated diagnosis of the human imperative to flee servitude. In her first solo exhibition, Nia Hampton shows the results of her own bout of “drapetomania” after graduating college and moving to Brazil. She captured the following on her journey through South America: environmental racism, African spiritual practices, femicide, black Brazilian feminism, haircut culture, and love. The exhibition opens in Baltimore, Md, Friday, April 13th at 6pm. Please go to wallergallery.com for more information.

4. The Enslaved Body: Fashion and Language
EIn this episode we talk to dress historian, Joy Davis about the enslaved body. Joy explains “The enslaved body can be described as both an idea and a physical construct: a beaten, scarred, oppressed, or restricted person physically and/or mentally. This has manifested itself in primary source material such as the runaway slave ad and abolitionist literature such as "Uncle Tom's Cabin." The enslaved body is a part of the larger concept of the colonial body. And while it is very important to understand the ideal body of the historical fashion moment, the colonial and enslaved body go beyond the physical form.” In our discussion, we explore the enslaved body’s representation in fashion art, literature, and advertisements.
