The Costume Institute, The Metropolitan Museum of Art
September 2008
Every decade has its seer or sybil of style, a designer who, above all others, is able to divine and define the desires of women. In the 1910s, this oracle of the mode was Paul Poiret, known in America as “The King of Fashion.” In Paris, he was simply Le Magnifique, after Süleyman the Magnificent, a suitable soubriquet for a couturier who, alongside the all-pervasive influence of Sergei Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes, employed the language of Orientalism to develop the romantic and theatrical possibilities of clothing. Like his artistic confrere Léon Bakst, Poiret’s exoticized tendencies were expressed through his use of vivid color coordinations and enigmatic silhouettes such as his iconic “lampshade” tunic and his “harem” trousers, or pantaloons. However, these Orientalist fantasies (or, rather, fantasies of the Orient) have served to detract from Poiret’s more enduring innovations, namely his technical and marketing achievements. Poiret effectively established the canon of modern dress and developed the blueprint of the modern fashion industry. Such was his vision that Poiret not only changed the course of costume history but also steered it in the direction of modern design history.
In 1901, Poiret joined the House of Worth, where he was asked to create what Gaston Worth (the son of Charles Frederick Worth, the eponymous founder) called “fried potatoes,” simple, practical garments that were side dishes to Worth’s main course of “truffles,” opulent evening and reception gowns. One of his “fried potatoes,” a cloak made from black wool and cut along straight lines like the kimono, proved too simple for one of Worth’s royal clients, the Russian princess Bariatinsky, who on seeing it cried, “What horror; with us, when there are low fellows who run after our sledges and annoy us, we have their heads cut off, and we put them in sacks just like that.” Her reaction, however, prompted Poiret to found his own maison de couture in 1903 at 5 rue Auber. Later, in 1906, he moved his atelier to 37 rue Pasquier, and then, in 1909, to 9 avenue d’Antin. Two years later, he established a perfume and cosmetics company named after his eldest daughter, Rosine, and a decorative arts company named after his second daughter, Martine, both located at 107 Faubourg Saint-Honoré. In so doing, he was the first couturier to align fashion with interior design and promote the concept of a “total lifestyle.”
In freeing women from corsets and dissolving the fortified grandeur of the obdurate, hyperbolic silhouette, Poiret effected a concomitant revolution in dressmaking, one that shifted the emphasis away from the skills of tailoring to those based on the skills of draping. It was a radical departure from the couture traditions of the nineteenth century, which, like menswear (to which they were indebted), relied on pattern pieces, or more specifically the precision of pattern making, for their efficacy. Looking to both antique and regional dress types, most notably to the Greek chiton, the Japanese kimono, and the North African and Middle Eastern caftan, Poiret advocated fashions cut along straight lines and constructed of rectangles. Such an emphasis on flatness and planarity required a complete reversal of the optical effects of fashion. The cylindrical wardrobe replaced the statuesque, turning, three-dimensional representation into two-dimensional abstraction. It was a strategy that dethroned the primacy and destabilized the paradigm of Western fashion.
Poiret’s process of design through draping is the source of fashion’s modern forms. It introduced clothing that hung from the shoulders and facilitated a multiplicity of possibilities. Poiret exploited its fullest potential by launching, in quick succession, a series of designs that were startling in their simplicity and originality. From 1906 to 1911, he presented garments that promoted an etiolated, high-waisted Directoire Revival silhouette. Different versions appeared in two limited-edition albums, Paul Iribe’s Les robes de Paul Poiret (1908) and Georges Lepape’s Les choses de Paul Poiret (1911), early examples of Poiret’s attempts to cement the relationship between art and fashion (later expressed in collaborations with Erté and Raoul Dufy, among others). Both albums relied on the stenciling technique known as pochoir, resulting in brilliantly saturated areas of color (2009.300.1289). It was an approach that not only reflected the novelty of Poiret’s designs but also his unique palette. Indeed, although the columnar garments depicted in the pochoirs referenced Neoclassicism, their acidic colors and exotic accessorization, most notably turbans wrapped à la Madame de Staël, were more an expression of Orientalism (as were several cocoon or kimono coats for which Poiret was known throughout his career)

In the space below, write your second poem, the sonnet, focused on the same theme as the first poem you wrote. Be sure to follow the rules of a sonnet.
The first poem : On the first day of love did I see,
A goddess in a black dress.
Her hair messy and tangled like a nest,
But yet she was beautiful.
Fierceness flew from her eyes and the forest did dance,
As her hands grabbed mine.
And into the darkness I fell........
Answer:
...
Explanation:
God dang thats good
I always think of our times together
I've never denied that powerful spark
The warmth of your love in cold weather
Thoughts of you lifted me in the dark
But then, your eyes trained on another
And my heart was broken and shattered
My failing hoped then found my mother
And I knew, to you, I still mattered
But now, my heart seeks ti be free
I am breaking the bonds I have set
For, even though I ran to you for safety
I soon learned that I needn't fret
For now, my heart will set you aside
And let myself experience this crazy ride
The mass of an object is 42.8 kg. Calculate the weight on the Earth.
Answer:
Weight = 419.44 Newton
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 42.8 kg
We know that the acceleration due to gravity of all physical objects on Earth is 9.8 m/s².
To find weight, we would use the following formula;
Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity
Substituting into the formula, we have;
Weight = 42.8 * 9.8
Weight = 419.44 Newton
From the details in Act I of The Crucible, what can you conclude most clearly about Abigail’s relationship with the other girls? Group of answer choices She uses the other girls’ fear of her and of supernatural events to intimidate them. Her beauty and cleverly crafted purity give her great influence over the other girls. She has little influence over the other girls, despite her social position as the minister’s niece. Her charm and magnetic persuasiveness make her a natural leader among the girls.
Answer:
From the details in Act I of "The Crucible", we can conclude the following about Abigail's relationship with the other girls:
1. She uses the other girls' fear of her and of supernatural events to intimidate them.
Explanation:
"The Crucible" is a play by Arthur Miller. Set in Puritan Salem, the play revolves around false accusations concerning witchcraft that lead to several imprisonments and deaths. Several themes are developed in the play, such as power, manipulation, blind faith, and injustice, among others.
Abigail is one of the antagonists, probably even the most villainous character in the story. Manipulative and selfish, she intimidates the other girls by using their fear of supernatural events. It is Abigail who sends the other characters to jail by falsely accusing them of witchcraft. It is interesting to note that her motives are low and egotistic. In Puritan Salem, an unmarried girl like Abigail had no social status whatsoever. By accusing others, she gains power and influence.

Birches
BY ROBERT FROST
When I see birches bend to left and right
Across the lines of straighter darker trees,
I like to think some boy's been swinging them.
But swinging doesn't bend them down to stay
As ice-storms do. Often you must have seen them
Loaded with ice a sunny winter morning
After a rain. They click upon themselves
As the breeze rises, and turn many-colored
As the stir cracks and crazes their enamel.
Soon the sun's warmth makes them shed crystal shells
Shattering and avalanching on the snow-crust—
Such heaps of broken glass to sweep away
You'd think the inner dome of heaven had fallen.
They are dragged to the withered bracken by the load,
And they seem not to break; though once they are bowed
So low for long, they never right themselves:
You may see their trunks arching in the woods
Years afterwards, trailing their leaves on the ground
Like girls on hands and knees that throw their hair
Before them over their heads to dry in the sun.
But I was going to say when Truth broke in
With all her matter-of-fact about the ice-storm
I should prefer to have some boy bend them
As he went out and in to fetch the cows—
Some boy too far from town to learn baseball,
Whose only play was what he found himself,
Summer or winter, and could play alone.
One by one he subdued his father's trees
By riding them down over and over again
Until he took the stiffness out of them,
And not one but hung limp, not one was left
For him to conquer. He learned all there was
To learn about not launching out too soon
And so not carrying the tree away
Clear to the ground. He always kept his poise
To the top branches, climbing carefully
With the same pains you use to fill a cup
Up to the brim, and even above the brim.
Then he flung outward, feet first, with a swish,
Kicking his way down through the air to the ground.
So was I once myself a swinger of birches.
And so I dream of going back to be.
It's when I'm weary of considerations,
And life is too much like a pathless wood
Where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs
Broken across it, and one eye is weeping
From a twig's having lashed across it open.
I'd like to get away from earth awhile
And then come back to it and begin over.
May no fate willfully misunderstand me
And half grant what I wish and snatch me away
Not to return. Earth's the right place for love:
I don't know where it's likely to go better.
I'd like to go by climbing a birch tree,
And climb black branches up a snow-white trunk
Toward heaven, till the tree could bear no more,
But dipped its top and set me down again.
That would be good both going and coming back.
One could do worse than be a swinger of birches.
1. What does the speaker want to think has caused the birches to bend? What really caused them to bend? Why might the speaker want to believe in the first cause?
2. To what does the speaker compare the ice that falls from the birches? To what does he compare their trunks and leaves? What can you infer about the speaker's regarding the birches? What might the speaker mean when he say that "One could do worse than be a swinger of birches?
3. In this poem, Frost compares life to a pathless wood. Do you think this is an appropriate simile for life? Why or Why not? To what might you compare life?
4. This poem includes examples of onomatopoeia. How, in your opinion, does onomatopoeia contribute to the impact of the poem?
Don't answer if you don't answer. Thanks!
1.When the speaker sees bent birch trees, he likes to think that they are bent because boys have been “swinging” them. He knows that they are, in fact, bent by ice storms. ... He likens birch swinging to getting “away from the earth awhile” and then coming back.
2.You may see their trunks arching in the woods ... I should prefer to have some boy bend them ... One could do worse than be a swinger of birches. ... When the speaker sees bent birch trees, he likes to think that they are bent ... He does not want his wish half- fulfilled—does not want to be left, so to speak, ...
3.In the two similes Frost uses in his poem "Birches," he compares trees that have been permanently bent by the ice-storms of previous years to "girls on hands and knees that throw their hair / Before them over their heads to dry in the sun" and likens difficult hard intense periods in life to a "pathless wood / Where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs / Broken across it, and one eye is Weeping / From a twig's having lashed across it open."
4.For example, bark came about because it mimics the actual sound a dog makes. ... chronicles the death of the legendary King Arthur and includes onomatopoeia. ... the Snow" uses onomatopoeia to depict a girl's thoughts about the effects of snow.

Explanation: i got 100% on my test
So I need some context here. ( This is for a school project about the Black Lives Matter)
So I’m Jamaican and Hispanic (I don’t think that really matters) but Ive grown up in a Hispanic household for a long time and I haven’t been really exposed to my Jamaican side that much. What should I include about the BLM project? Like All Black Lives Matter or Including examples from slavery?
Answer: examples of slavery would help provide a point of view many people don't see, as well as all black lives matter. Mention how African Americans have been important in the history of the world. The achievements and goals set and made by them. How without them, this world would be very different.
Answer:
So, if this were me, I would give some examples of what has happened to black people before, and then i would talk about what has happened recently to cause people to protest and stuff again, and then end it with All Black Lives Matter.

Can you guys write down for me Comparison and Contrast essay.
Comparison means to see the difference. Contrast means the similarities. I would write more, but you have to give a topic, what you are comparing and contrasting about.
[TOPIC]
Spending money on Education vs for fun.
"When school districts spend money wisely, they have better outcomes, including higher test scores, increased graduation rates, and other improved indicators of student achievement. More money also helps ensure that students have schools with better facilities and more curriculum options. Some people like spending money on clothes."
"Other people like spending money on alcohol. Still others enjoy cars or TVs or movies, drugs, games, concerts, traveling, education, fancy restaurants, family events or holidays."
[PERSUASIVE ESSAY FORM BELOW]
[INTRODUCTION]
Some may argue that spending money for fun
is more important than spending it on education, but that is simply incorrect. Spending money on education is much more efficient rather than spending it for pleasure because it has much more benefits than it does for entertainment.
[BODY PARAGRAPH]
It can be proven that spending money on
education is far more systematic than using that money on amusement. For example, when I wanted to get better grades for my math class, I bought some notebooks from Walmart and wrote stuff down in class, that way I would go home after school and study so that when the test comes, I will be ready to take it with confidence. I would go to school with my new notebook and write some equations and explain what they meant in words that I would understand. After doing so, I would go home and reread the equations and solve some math problems using those equations. When the test arrives, I will remember the equations and use them to solve the problems on the test and pass the test with a high enough grade. This proves that spending money on education is more important than to spend it for fun.
[CONCLUSION]
Spending money on education is much more efficient rather than spending it for pleasure because it has much more benefits than it does for entertainment. Next time, be sure to think twice and spend your money wisely. You should ask someone who is very familiar with business and economics and would be of great assistance.
Hope this helps.

A BOY put his hand into a pitcher full of filberts. He
grasped as many as he could possibly hold, but when he
tried to pull out his hand, he was prevented from doing so
by the neck of the pitcher. Unwilling to lose his filberts,
and yet unable to withdraw his hand, he burst into tears
and bitterly lamented his disappointment. A bystander
said to him, "Be satisfied with half the quantity, and you
will readily draw out your hand."
