Here is a link to the September 5, 1938 issue of Life Magazine, particularly an article on Fall Fashions highlighting the (what was in hindsight very brief) resurgence of hoop skirts.
Here, too, is a commentary on the article and the RetroSpective show at the Museum at FIT from the Two Nerdy History Girls blog: http://twonerdyhistorygirls.blogspot.com/2013/08/what-every-girl-should-know-about.html

I am an art historian specializing in early twentieth century American art with particular focus on the history of photography, race and representation, and transatlantic modernist networks. I earned my PhD at Yale University in the History of Art Department.
Besides my leadership role as the Founding Co-Director of the Association for Critical Race Art History (ACRAH), I am recognized for my expertise on African American Art, particularly African American Photography, and as a seasoned consultant for exhibitions, museum collections, and symposia/lectures planning.
