Bowtie Tutorial by Erlend Johansen
Quote by Bill Bryson
Even the simplest things had a glorious
pointlessness to them. When buttons came in, about 1650, people couldn't get
enough of them.
Facts
Men’s buttons were changed to the right side so
that a swordsman could use his left hand to unbutton his coat and immediately
draw his sword with his right hand.
Frederick The Great of Prussia started the
practice in the 18th century. The rumor goes that after an inspection of his
troops, he ordered that buttons be sewn on the sleeves of their coats to
discourage them from wiping their noses on them
Scovill Manufacturing Company in America made a set of gold buttons with the profile of George Washington on them that were presented to Marquis de Lafayette during his U.S. visit in 1824.
World War One, most button manufacturing was done in Europe, specifically England. After the war, the United States became the center of button making until modern times.
