Very excited that Kate Strasdin's book, The Dress Diary: Secrets from a Victorian Woman's Wardrobe, is being released in the States next June.

An introduction repeat, now that I'm moving instances.

I'm a dress historian with an interest in all things #adornment and #MaterialCulture. I'm interested in the #HistoryOfDress, #HistoryOfTextiles, and the #EarlyModernAtlantic.

I have a book in copy edits with MQUP right now on the dress culture of early #Acadia, and a paper coming soon in Textile History on #weaving in Scottish Cape Breton. You'll hear a lot more about these as publication gets closer.

My current big project is on #spurs and #EarlyModern #masculinities, and I teach a four-course sequence on global #FashionHistory at Dalhousie University.

@HilaryDoda i am excited for all the #HistoryOfDress, #HistoryOfTextiles, and #FashionHistory content you might share!
