Nightshade A Narrative

C H O K E R S
Fashion has always been an unpredictable, cyclical creature. One can only know what will come and go as the seasons change. The choker is back again and though it is often attributed to the ‘90s, its place in fashion history has been long and winding. Chokers can be found in a variety of material from plastic to leather, velvet to metal and everything in between. Their first appearance in fashion was during the French Revolution. They were not only a fashion statement,
but also a political one. Women were often seen with red ribbons encircling their necks as a tribute to those whose lives had been cut short by the guillotine. By the time the mid-19th century rolled around, chokers had expanded their scope as a fashion accessory. They became a symbol of wealth and status, popularized by ballerinas and royalty. The next choker revival came about around the time America began establishing itself as an epicenter for fashion, the ‘40s.

The next choker revival came about around the time America began establishing itself as an epicenter for fashion, the ‘40s. Though the dog collar-style chokers seen today seem
to be a fresh new iteration of the trend, in the ‘40s the dog collar was all the rage. Yet, like many trends, it came and went as time passed. Flash forward 30 years, with punk thriving in the U.K. and New York City the choker returned for a brief heyday within the ‘70s subculture. Following the trends of the punk era, the ‘90s brought us the classic tattoo choker and the mass produc-
tion of sparkly styles. Which brings us finally to today, where you can barely walk down the street without passing someone who’s neck is adorned with a choker. Whether it’s long or short, glam or bland, spiked or soft, the choker is here to stay, at least for another season. By: Annalise Hartlaub
