With the aim of having the most complete knowledge in Costume History, I completed and facilitated the following courses:
Collège LaSalle :
(1999). History of Costume (Egyptian period to 1850).
(1999). Fashion phenomenon (Victorian era to 1970).
(1998). Hat Making - Millinery.
At the "Centre National du Costume" :
(Mai 2000) Regency at the 18th century and Directory - Empire.
(March 2000) History of fashion: Costume and Society -1789-1852
(Octobre 2000) From the Middle Ages to the Renaissance (the costume of the year 1000 to 1500)).
I am a part-time instructor for the Lasalle College. Teaching the courses History of Costume and History of Fashion. (Periods seen in class: from Old Egypt to the year 2000).
From 2000 to 2005. Participation in the Fetes-de la Nouvelle France Exposition in Quebec by a loan of costumes and accessories as well as exhaustive Research in "Nouvelle-France" New-France Costume published on their Web site. I have also traveled extensively in Europe. I've visited many museums in Belgium, France, Germany, Austria and England as well as in North America. These have allowed me to appease a historical curiosity while going on the spot to verify and build an extended photographic archive of costume of every period.
