Today is #hurrayforbuttonsday Celebrity Stylist Ty-Ron Mayes styled #supermodel and host of @antmvh1 @tyrabanks in the iconic “Button Dress” created by the late designer Patrick Kelly! Kelly was known as the Black designer who conquered Paris with his ingenious use of buttons. In history, the first buttons were used for ornamentation and seals, and have been found in the Indus River Valley (c. 2800-2600 BCE), China (c. 2000-1500 BCE), and ancient Rome. The oldest known button—dating to 5000 BCE—was made from a curved shell and found in the Indus River Valley. Buttons that function as fasteners, along with buttonholes, didn't come about until the 13th century, where they first appeared in Germany and spread throughout Europe. They have been made from almost every material, their composition often reflecting the popular materials of the era in which they were made. Today they are most often constructed out of hard plastic, metals, seashells, or wood. They have been created by artisans, artists, and craftspeople, out of raw materials or found objects such as fossils, or from a combination of both. They have been made in small quantities, or in large quantities at factories. Button collecting, which is most popular in the United States, varies from people having buttons in a container for future use, to casual collecting, to competitive collecting. The National Button Society was founded in 1938. Hobbies magazine had organized a hobby show in Chicago in 1938, and button collectors participated in the show. Later that year they formed the Society and held their own button show the following year. Many state and local button clubs were formed the following decade, and they also put on button shows. Today the National Button Society has over 3,000 members in four continents. . . . #celebritystylisttyronmayes #superstylisttyronmayes #superstylist #tyronmayes #stylist #newyorkstylist #fashion #celebritystylist #ootd #wardrobestylist #paperfaces #beautiful #bestoftheday #influencer #blackcelebritystylist #newyorkcity #tyrabanks #patrickkelly #patrickkellyparis (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_-yltNh9hw/?igshid=1e7wdz5lro755
