Entre cotidianidades: vestidas para trabajar, de visita, para rezar o de paseo festivo

Abstract

Many things were changing at the end of XVIII century inside the Castilian suite of the rooms and the clothing of the bourgeoisie and middle class. This transformation shows the power of a new civilization, daily life and material culture. The increase of the consumer and other important variety of dresses and raw materials to get a new cutlery, a more refined look and a specialized feminine appearance must be analysed in depth beginning from the dowries, the post-mortem inventories, the goods distributed between the heirs and the literature of that historic moment. In this way, we can understand the daily customs and its progressive evolution.
