Fashion Victims The Dangers of Dress Past and Present Alison Matthews David

“Combining narrative verve with a brilliant selection of pictures, Fashion Victims is both an engaging read and a ‘useable history’. Meticulously researched, it wears its academic credentials lightly, and the story it tells is at once entertaining and startling. Fashion history will never seem quite the same again.” Caroline Evans, Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London, UK

September 2015 256 pages 129 colour illus 246 x 189mm / 9.7 x 7.4 inches HB 9781845204495 £25.00 / $40.00 Bloomsbury Visual Arts

Fabulously gory and gruesome, Fashion Victims takes the reader on a fascinating journey through the toxic history of dress, in myth and reality. Drawing upon numerous visual and textual sources, from nonsensical mad hatters and lice-ridden soldiers, to the fiery deaths of Oscar Wilde’s half-sisters, the book explores how garments have actually, purportedly, or mythically, tormented those who made and wore them. Vividly chronicling evidence from Greek mythology to the present day, Matthews David puts everyday apparel under the microscope and unpicks the dark side of fashion. Alison Matthews David is Associate Professor in the School of Fashion, Ryerson University, Toronto, Canada. Contents Introduction: Death by Fashion in Fact and Fiction 1.

The First Book of Fashion The Book of Clothes of Matthäus and Veit Konrad Schwarz of Augsburg Edited by Ulinka Rublack and Maria Hayward

“The First Book of Fashion tells the fascinating story of Matthäus Schwarz (b. 1497), a bourgeois man in Renaissance Germany, who was as fashion-obsessed as the trendiest teenagers in contemporary Tokyo. Like them, he documented his changing styles in a series of painted “selfies,” which he gathered together in a little “book of clothes,” which has now been brilliantly analyzed.” Valerie Steele, multiaward-winning fashion scholar and Director of the Museum at FIT, New York, US This captivating book reproduces arguably the most extraordinary primary source documents in fashion history and demonstrates how dress is a potent tool in the right hands. Beyond this, it colorfully recaptures the experience of Renaissance life and reveals the importance of clothing to the aesthetics and every day culture of the period. This first English translation also includes a bespoke pattern by TONY award-winning costume designer and dress historian Jenny Tiramani, from which readers can recreate one of Schwarz’s most elaborate and politically significant outfits. Ulinka Rublack is Professor of Early Modern European History at Cambridge University, UK. Maria Hayward is Professor in Early Modern European History at the University of Southampton, UK.

fashion it loses its cultural significance, is viewed as costume, and offends the originating group. Some designers find inspiration from controversial groups, such as the Hate Couture trend. Hate Couture incorporates elements of the Nazi regime or Ku Klux Klan into fashion, such as armbands with the Nazi swastika, Nazi uniforms, and shoes with the swastika on the sole (so that they leave the impression in the ground). The trend even reached celebrities and couture fashion; in 1995 the fashion house of Jean-Louis Scherrer (designed by Bernard Perris) showed couture pieces with Nazi insignia;1 in 2005 Prince Harry of England wore a Nazi armband to a costume party and in 2006 Rocky Mazzilli offered a couture ensemble with a prominent swastika on the skirt. Elsewhere, Nazi fashion has become popular among Harajuku trendsetters. Elements of the United States Deep South can also be seen as offensive to some people. The Confederate flag is a source of controversy (some view it as racist whereas others view it as heritage) and is featured on t-shirts, shoes, bathing suits, and so forth. Meanwhile, in 2012 the Ku Klux Klan distinctive robes inspired Ivaek Archer of Chiz’l Menswear to reveal a men’s robe with hoodie in the shape of the Ku Klux Klan’s pointed hood, while in 2012 Rei Kawakubo showed a wedding ensemble with pointed hood at Paris fashion week.2

BOXED CASE 6.2: CLASSICS CAN HAVE FASHIONABLE DETAILS TOO At the beginning of this text you read that fashions were different from fads and classic, and while this is true, there is one caveat that you should understand. Classics can have fashionable components to them. The little black dress is considered a classic of fashion, with its lineage dating back to Coco Chanel in the 1920s, but details such as ruffles, neckline, hemline, and silhouette have changed depending on the Zeitgeist. Likewise, Converse shoes have a classic silhouette, but the choice of color, print (e.g., solid, stripe, camouflage), and fabrication (e.g., canvas, leather) can vary with a trend (see Figure 6.3). The trench coat is also considered a classic, with Thomas Burberry claiming invention in 1901. The style has remained relatively unchanged for over a century, but details such as colors, fabrications, hem lengths, sleeve style, and buttons have changed to align with fashionable movements. The example in Figure 6.4 illustrates and demonstrates fashionable elements. In addition to their fabrication (cotton twill, wax-coated nylon, and fine merino wool) the cuffs vary with a curved, pointed, or nonexistent sleeve band. Thus, although there are some items of dress that are deemed “unchangeable,” in reality there are little changes that belie the influence of fashion.

Introduction 1. Zero-waste from history to now Zero waste across cultures and eras Interview with Alexandra Palmer, Senior Curator, Royal Ontario Museum (Canada) Modern zero waste fashion design Interview with Zandra Rhodes, fashion designer (London, UK) Interview with Maja Stabel, fashion designer (Norway)

This chapter focuses on successful strategies and techniques for zero waste fashion design. Through practice over time, you will likely come up with your own techniques that work for you. Embrace risk in design as an access to new solutions; taking risks creates new possibilities. Designing within, and with, the fabric is integral to this kind of designing. In zero waste fashion design, fabric creates the space for inventive exploration.

fact that in 2002, Oscar de la Renta did a collection of cerulean gowns. And then I think it was Yves Saint Laurent... wasn’t it who showed cerulean military jackets? I think we need a jacket here. And then cerulean quickly showed up in the collections of eight different designers. And then it, uh, filtered down through the department stores and then trickled on down into some tragic Casual Corner where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that blue represents millions of dollars and countless jobs and it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from the fashion industry when, in fact, you’re wearing the sweater that was selected for you by the people in this room from a pile of stuff.’ Actress Meryl Streep as fashion editor Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada

‘This... stuff’? Oh. Okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select... I don’t know... that lumpy blue sweater, for instance because you’re trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back. But what you don’t know is that that sweater is not just blue, it’s not turquoise. It’s not lapis. It’s actually cerulean. And you’re also blithely unaware of the

Trend forecasters locate the source of trends and use their skill and knowledge to identify emerging concepts. Forecasters’ observations are shared with product developers, marketers, and the press, setting off the chain reaction that is fashion. The result is a continuous flow of products with new styling, novel decoration, and innovative uses. Saks Fifth Avenue Fashion Director Jaqui Lividini uses the services of forecasters combined with her own staff’s predictions to anticipate her shoppers’ preferences. “You want to have what she wants before she knows she wants it. If you’re behind her, you’ve lost her. If you’re in step, she’s not excited. We try to be one step ahead. If you’re two steps ahead, she’s not interested in it”(Blair, 2013). Trend forecasters work in many kinds of firms—for designers, advertising agencies, fiber producers, trade organizations, retail chains, and apparel brands. These professionals have job titles that range from manager of trend

offers free yoga classes to employees and customers. The company even features live yoga models for events such as a store opening, exemplifying the experiential nature of the brand and enticing a passerby to perhaps come into the store (Figure 11.1). By using yoga as its sport of choice, the company can easily facilitate enough space in the store to demonstrate the sport and at the same time educate those who are unfamiliar with yoga. A person who actually sees someone doing yoga might be encouraged to think, “Hey, I can do that!” and perhaps participate in yoga, when he or she might not have done that in the past. This approach also encourages customers to feel that they might need to buy yoga clothes, and where better than the very location on which they are situated? Lululemon gets consumers motivated about doing yoga and then sells them the proper attire to do it. Since yoga is done barefoot, the company has no need for selling shoes and therefore can outfit the entire lifestyle of a yogi from head to toe, including the matt, bag, and water bottles. How clever is that? Lululemon Athletica also builds brand loyalty through its ambassador program. The company uses this program much as other sportswear and equipment companies use star-athlete endorsements.

However, this 1,500- strong “ambassador” program extends to unique individuals in store communities deemed appropriate by the company, including world-class athletes such as twenty-five Olympic athletes. Athletes such as cyclist Ryan Leech are part of the Elite Ambassadors campaign and are part of an online forum through which the ambassadors can network with each other through the Lululemon blog. Feedback on products is sent back to headquarters and the design team in Vancouver. The company utilizes various types of social media, such as its blog, to reinforce the brand lifestyle. It also has in-store community boards where customers can post information about yoga and sporting events appropriate to the company’s lifestyle. The retail store is very important to this company, and it has spared no expense. Each Lululemon store is merchandised to the highest standards, with men’s and women’s apparel, as well as accessories, clearly demarcated (Figure 11.2). The store also displays body forms for visual appeal. With this strategy, Lululemon does more than just sell yoga apparel; it has been transformed into a community-minded, ecofriendly business that sells a complete lifestyle to its consumers.

FiguRe 11.2 Lululemon Athletica merchandises with the highest standards and uses body forms to provide visual display and to show products.

FiguRe 11.1 Live yoga model in the front store windows at Lululemon attracts passersby to come into the store—a great example of experiential retailing.

Interview

GILES DEACON ,

Fashion Designer

How do you start your collections?

How many are in your team?

We start the next collection before we finish the one we are working on. For example, the Autumn/Winter 2009 research started three weeks before the Spring/Summer 2009 show. We need to keep up the pace in the studio, as certain staff are on a monthly salary, so we are producing all the time and do pre-collections as well. When researching for the new collection, I use stuff that has been collected all year round, and I work in sketchbooks.

There are nine full-time, four part-time, and a number of students.

Designing for different markets

How do you develop new shapes? Patterns that haven’t worked in the past are reworked. Cutters work on new shapes from inspirational mood boards; finishes may come from any surplus garments for new fabrics. I also set mini projects for assistants and students who will go around the shops looking at how garments, such as those at Prada and Lanvin, are made. The interpretations of new styles need to look like they come from Giles.

How many collections do you design? There are eight in total: two main collections, Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter for Giles; two pre-collections for July and November; and four collections a year for New Look.

How do you compile a color palette? I do it instinctively, starting with core black and navy and adding a few new colors for trims. Choosing a color is not a major problem.

The second difference in grading systems is how the total grade is distributed within the width and length of the pattern. Figure 2.2 presents a comparison among the authors’ grading system and systems used by Price and Zamkoff (1996) and Handford (2003). The differences are most apparent in the extreme sizes, because the changes are cumulative across the size range. It should be noted that Price and Zamkoff are authors from New York, and many firms use this grade distribution. Handford was from the west coast of the United States, and many west coast firms follow his grade distributions.

Grade Guide The bust, waist, and hip are the three primary body girth measurements applied to pattern grading. Generally, the amount of total body girth change is the same for the bust, the waist, and the hip. This difference designates the amount of grade for the garment and is referred to as a uniform grade. If the change in all three body areas is 1 inch, then the pattern has a 1-inch grade. A mixed grade occurs if the change in one of the three body areas, such as the waist, is different than in the others. In a mixed grade, each area is designated as having its own grade (i.e., bust: a 2-inch grade; waist: a 1 1/2-inch grade;

Using the bodice as an example, the width grade is distributed within the neck, the shoulder, and the underarm areas. The length grade is distributed in the 1/8

How do you develop your prints and knitwear? I have a long working relationship with designers Fleet and Rory, who interpret the feel of the collection or prints. Ideas develop in conjunction with the print designers. Rory works through drawings, and Fleet works texturally. Syd will work large-scale knitwear showpieces, and fine-gauge knitwear samples are made in Italy. We also use Swarovski crystals on embroideries and prints.

neck, the armscye, and the underarm to waist areas. Different systems may specify varying amounts of the total width or length grades in each of these areas, which in turn affects how the garment fits in each of these areas. The effects of the differences in the sizes where the grade changes and how the grade is distributed within each size are most apparent in the fit of extreme sizes in a size range.

change from a 1-inch to a 1 1/2-inch grade varied from between sizes 6 and 8 to between sizes 16 and 18, with the greatest number of changes occurring between sizes 12 and 14 (Staples, 1994). The same variation was found in the sizes where the grade changed to a 2-inch grade.

CONCLUSION This book has taken you on a journey through the various processes and expectations when trying to develop a collection. Starting with the key processes involved in researching, designing, and producing a collection, this book will also help you understand how the different roles within a team come together to develop a collection, be it for a main collection or a specialist collection, such as knitwear, childrenswear, or accessories. Mainly focusing on womenswear and menswear, designers’ influences are identified into social categories, including historical, cultural, functional political, artistic, and futuristic.

The student collection

The main text is supported by contemporary interviews with a diverse cross section of global designers working in the fashion industry, which we hope will inspire you to realize your aspirations as the next generation of designers.

• Flashcards of terms and definitions and image identification

The 300 lockstitches classification is the most widely used for assembly of apparel products. Lockstitches are selected for securing buttons, forming buttonholes and bar tacks, main seaming and hemming of garments, attaching elastic and trims, embroidery, and top stitching. It is important to note that this stitch class, while strong and secure, does not offer stretch or extendibility. The 300 Class of lockstitches are formed with a bobbin thread and one or more needle threads that pass through the fabric and interlace together to secure each stitch. This stitch class offers straight stitching and zigzag patterns, as well as blind hem stitch formations that offer greater security than 100 Class stitches.7,8 See Figure 6.11 for the most commonly used ASTM and ISO 300 Class lock stitches in apparel.

produce a grade distribution for the back and front body that results in the actual anthropometric measurements across a size range. Table A.1 contains arc measurements and total girth measurements for the bust, waist, and hips. It is important to know what the complex grade distribution is so that the efficiency of a simplified system developed from the same data can be evaluated. The complex grading system based on the PS 42-70 Grade Guide has been simplified by the authors of this text with the rationale illustrated in Appendix A. By comparing complex and simplified systems developed from the same data, it is apparent why garments in extreme sizes may result in fit problems and distortion of style sense when graded by a simplified system (Table A.5).

explained. An understanding of how a grading system is developed; therefore, any data can be used.

Development of Grading Systems Grading systems are developed to translate the body changes that occur from size to size to the corresponding garment master pattern pieces. The procedure used to develop a grading system is as follows: 1. Collect anthropometric data from individuals within a target population 2. Statistically analyze the collected data to determine sizing specifications and standards 3. Distribute the dimensions from the size specifications across the body to replicate the body shape changes from size to size

Grading Systems A grading system is developed from sizing specifications, and sizing specifications are derived from anthropometric surveys. A grade guide dictates the system of grade distribution across the pattern. The review of available anthropometric data, which consists of measurements of actual body dimensions, is important to understand the development of sizing specifications and how they are basic to grade guides used for pattern grading systems (Appendix A). A grade guide is determined by the mathematical differences between the dimensions of adjacent sizes.

This systematic increasing and decreasing of the body dimensions between sizes is fundamental to developing a grading system. This process of understanding the differences between the measurements is of major importance. A grading system conveys the incremental changes between the body measurements or garment dimensions as the size increases or decreases. These increments are then used to develop grade guides and x,y coordinates for grade rules. Appendix A illustrates how anthropometric data can be used to develop a grading system. The PS 42-70 Voluntary Product Standard lists sizes 6 to 22, a range of nine sizes (Table A.1). Table A.2 in Appendix A is the Grade Guide for the Misses Size specification table and consists of girth, arc, width, and length measurements. A grade guide dictates the grading system by which the grades are distributed in the pattern. To use the PS 42-70 Grade Guide as is would require the development of a complex grading system, which can be found in Appendix A. Only a complex grading system can

Grading systems differ in two major ways. The first difference is the size at which the grade changes in the size range from a 1-inch to a 1 1/2-inch grade and from a 1 1/2-inch to a 2-inch grade. This numeric classification (i.e., 1 inch, 1 1/2 inch, and 2 inch) indicates the dimensional change from one size to the adjacent size.

Narrow Facing A narrow facing is used to finish raw edges of a neckline or the armholes. The facing can be stitched to the entire neckline or to part of the neckline. The facing is cut from a narrow strip of lightweight knit, bias cut woven fabric or bias binding can be used. The polo top in Figure 6.1g has a narrow facing stitched to the back neckline.

STITCHING TIP 6.9: STITCHING THE TURNED AND TOPSTITCHED EDGE

Refer to Figure 6.51c to stitch the narrow facing. • Fold the facing in half with wrong sides together and lengthwise edges aligned, press • Place correct sides of the garment and facing together and stitch a ¼" seam. • Turn the facing inside the garment, understitched and topstitched.

Refer to Figure 6.51d to stitch the turned and topstitched edge. • Press narrow stabilizing tape cut from four-way stretch knit interfacing to the neckline for stability. Then join the shoulder seams, do not serge the neck edge. • Press the allowance to the wrong side, stretching as you press so the turning sits flat. If the fabric is springy loosely handbaste the turning and then press. • Topstitch the edge with narrow (2.00−2.5) twin needles. Begin stitching on a seamline.

Turned-and-Topstitched

Draw the neckline/armhole outline on the pattern. Add ¼" seam allowances to these edges for stitching the facing. Measure the length of the seamline/s where the facing will be applied. Draft the facing pattern 1 ¼" wide and the total length of the neckline. The length of the facing does not need to be reduced. Add ¼" extra seam allowance to both ends of the facing.

Take NoTe 10.4 Whatever closure the designer chooses to use for the garment, it must be functional and easy to use. A complicated design may be annoying to have to struggle with putting on and off.

Buttons and buttonholes are the most frequently used closure. In this chapter, a covered button and a layered button are sampled. A “faced” machine buttonhole is first basted to outline the shape; it’s stitched for unusual or large, shaped buttons (Figures 10.3 and 10.4). In order for a garment with buttons and buttonholes, such as the classic French cardigan, to close accurately and correctly, the garment center lines must be brought directly together when buttoned (Figure 10.5). This is marked on the garment front extension (added to the pattern) and finished with seam treatments (Figure 10.6). In women’s clothes, the garment buttonholes are on the right side of the garment and the buttons are on the left side. Use snaps on the underside of the garment if a very large decorative button is used. An extremely large buttonhole to accommodate the size of the button would be very unattractive and might not function properly.

Figure 10.1 Functional facing with edge finish

Take NoTe 10.2 Understitching the facing to the seam allowance prevents the facing from rolling to the outside of the garment. Do not omit this very important step for a professional finish.

A decorative facing is a piece of fabric that is attached to the raw edge of a garment to finish that edge, but is turned to the right side (RS) of the garment. It functions as a trim as well as a facing. Allow ¹⁄8–¼" more in the seam allowance for turning the facing to the outside of the garment, allowing for the turn of cloth. Grading and trimming the seam allowance produces a flat turn of the facing. The facing edges should always have nicely finished edges. The designer will evaluate the weight, bulk, and texture of the facing and determine what stitching method will result in flat facing. Sample several different stitch treatments for knit fabrics: three-thread overlock stitch, fourthread overlock stitch, sewing machine wide zigzag stitch, or if necessary due to bulk, leave the smooth, evenly cut facing edge unfinished.

Patch Pockets A patch pocket is a shaped piece of fabric applied to the surface of a garment (Figure 10.2). It can be self-faced, unlined, or lined, and is functional or decorative. Used on tailored garments, suits, sportswear, and casual garments, it’s also commonly stitched to T-shirts. A patch pocket offers the designer many opportunities for creativity and embellishment. The application of the pocket onto the

Figure 10.2 Patch pocket with faux leather trim

surface of a garment must be precise and evenly stitched. Any detail applied to the surface of the garment should be of the highest possible stitching quality. The patch pocket is limited only by the type of fabric that is being used and the purpose for which the pocket is designed. It can be any shape, can have embellishments, zippers, flaps, or buttoned flaps, and can become the focus of the garment.

Take NoTe 10.3 Always create a sample pocket from the fabric being used for the garment before stitching the pocket to the garment. Removing stitches if an error occurs can damage the knit fabric.

Closures: Buttonholes, Snaps, Covered Buttons, and Layered Buttons A closure is whatever is used to fasten the garment to close it: buttons and buttonholes, snaps, covered buttons, layered buttons, zippers, and loops, to mention just a few. Each closure should complement the fabric and design.

Turn This Block into a Halter In couture, a halter top is very common in dresses. You can drape the halter separately from scratch, or you can drape a complete front and back dart block and turn it into a halter top. 1. To begin, drape the front and back blocks. It will be your choice which darts you choose to use in your design. 2. The front and back blocks need to be pinned together on the dressform to continue. 3. Mark the style lines with your marking tool. Mark the halter line at the neckline and shoulder/armhole, and take the style line to the back of the pattern by continuing the line to the back.

Knit Fabric Classifications

Allen C. Cohen was a Professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), USA.

Figure 6.12

Miss stitch. Note the floating unknit yarn in this diagram on the fabric back and the stitch elongation in the wale.

There are two main classifications of knitted fabrics: weft knits and warp knits. Each uses different kinds of machinery for producing fabric and each produces different types of fabrics. Examples of weft-knit fabrics are those used in sweaters and hosiery; an example of warp knit fabric is the material used in lingerie. Hand knitting is a weft knitting procedure. In weft knits, yarn traverses from side to side (or around), interacting with the needles to form new fabric stitches. In warp knits, a set of yarns traverses lengthwise, interacting with the needles to form new fabric stitches. The terms weft and warp are derived from woven terms, but unlike woven fabrics, knits are made from one set of yarns interlooping, as distinct from woven fabrics, which have two sets of yarns interlacing. (See Figure 6.14a and b.)

New to this edition • Updates include fiber innovations, high performance fabrics, smart textiles, nanotechnology, recent developments in wet processing and textile technology, global sourcing options, and sustainability

Figure 6.13

tuck stitch A tuck stitch is formed when a knitting needle holds its old loop and then receives a new yarn. Two loops then collect in the needle hook. The action may be repeated several more times, but the yarns eventually have to be cast off the needle and knitted. Figure 6.13 illustrates a tuck stitch. The resultant stitch is elongated. Tuck stitches appear on the back of a fabric and may be recognized as an inverted V, sometimes elongated for two or more courses, depending on how many times the stitch was tucked. The tuck stitch is used in knitted fabrics to create design effects in color, raised surface texture, or a hole or eyelet effect. The tuck stitch also has a tendency to increase fabric weight, width (wales are pushed apart), and thickness (yarn from the tuck stitch lies on top of the preceding stitch).

Digital Textile Printing Susan Carden

This book is the first to describe the historical and cultural context from which digital textile printing emerged and to engage critically with the many issues that it raises: the changing role of the textile designer; the transformation of the design process by new technology; the relationships between producers, clients and industry; and the impact of digital printing on wider creative industries. It addresses two key questions: what constitutes authenticity when printed textiles are created through the combined agency of the artist/ designer and the computer? And how can this new technology work sustainably in a period of spiralling demand?

Textile History and Culture

Tweed Fiona Anderson

This book considers the historical and social factors that helped to shape, change and define the characteristics of the group of fabrics that we call tweed since its emergence in the 1820s to the present day. Including significant new research on tweeds, from Harris Tweed to the type used by Chanel, this book follows the history of these fabrics from the raw fibre to the finished garment in men’s and women’s fashion. This is the first book of its kind to recognize the versatility of tweed and its importance in textiles and fashion today. Fiona Anderson is an Independent Scholar and Curator. She was formerly Senior Curator of Fashion and Textiles at National Museums Scotland, UK.

the fitted velvet jacket has a rounded shoulder line, nipped-in waist, pleated peplum, and three-quarter length sleeves (Figure 11.2). the straight center opening with a small standing collar is notched at the collarbone. the front panels of the jacket are constructed from single pieces of fabric, folded to create pockets at the upper bustline, and shaped with darts to create a peplum effect to the lower edge, with no front waist seam. the back bodice section is pleated at the waist to form a slight blouson effect (Figure 11.3), and has a separate piece of fabric to create a pleated peplum, with deep vents at either side (Figure 11.4). the sleeves are cut as one with the bodice sections, and have a deep cuff of self-fabric (4¼ inches or 10.8 cm), gathered and stitched in place on the outer edge (Figure 11.5). the seams for the sleeves are under the arm, with additional triangular underarm gussets (Figure 11.6). the inset pockets, placed at an angle with asymmetrical fold-over flaps, one on the upper breast of each front panel, serve as a decorative detail (Figure 11.7). While these pockets could be functional, their high positioning on the front of the jacket, and the way in which they form part of the jacket’s construction, suggest that they were never intended for actual use.

Dress History New Directions in Theory and Practice Edited by Charlotte Nicklas and Annebella Pollen

“This important collection breaks through familiar boundaries of writings on dress – in terms of time and place and with an admirable diversity of approach. Focused studies offer insights on topics that, thanks to their specificity, paradoxically enlarge the sphere of knowledge of dress.” Nancy B. Deihl, New York University, USA This in-depth investigation examines the expanding borders of dress history today, outlining key debates and showcasing the most exciting research. With international case studies from a wide range of scholars, the volume encompasses work from a variety of historical periods, from the late 18th century to the present day. Thematically structured, contributors examine, critique and expand the methodologies and sources used in fashion history, analyze how dress is collected, displayed and sold, and investigate clothing’s meanings and uses in the practice of identity. The book offers students and scholars a fresh appraisal of dress history in the 21st century.

evening designs, have a European flavor—sophisticated, feminine, and eminently wearable. Educated in Santo Domingo and Madrid, de la Renta remained in Madrid after graduation to study art, intending to become a painter. His fashion career began when sketches he made for his own amusement were seen by the wife of the American ambassador to Spain, who asked him to design a gown for her daughter’s debut. His first professional job was with Balenciaga’s Madrid couture house, Eisa. In 1961 he went to Paris as an assistant to Antonio de Castillo at Lanvin-Castillo, and in 1963 went with Castillo to New York to design at Elizabeth Arden. He joined Jane Derby in 1965 and was soon operating as Oscar de la Renta, Ltd.,

A signature perfume introduced in 1977 has been enormously successful. A second fragrance, Ruffles, appeared in 1983. De la Renta has also done boutique lines, bathing suits, wedding dresses, furs, jewelry, bed linens, and loungewear. In 1992 he took over the design of Balmain couture, remaining until his retirement in 2002. He continues to design his own New York collection. De la Renta is considered the poster child of the Dominican Republic. In 1982, he built La Casa de Niño, an orphanage and school for children of La Romana. Over 1,200 kids occupy the orphanage each year. Today, de la Renta represents a home line, eyewear, and bridal wear collection. Though his family now runs the business, de la Renta remains at the helm. His

Textbook “English has created a very respectable academic treatment of the last century of fashion... What is most notable about the content of this volume is the way English handles her broad topic; there are some powerful fashion images in this book, but this is no pretty coffee table accessory. English selects unique subjects within fashion for each chapter and zeroes in to prevent a deluge of meaningless and broad historical summaries.” WORN Fashion Journal

“This edition has encompassed all the intricacies of the fashion world and refreshingly included insight into the ‘business’ of the industry. A valuable tool for opening up the fashion world to students, and a one-stop read that will be entertaining for ‘fashionistas’ who are keen to learn more about the mysteries of fashion.” Kay McMahon, Queensland University of Technology, Australia

Fashioning Memory Vintage Style and Youth Culture Heike Jenss

“Fashioning Memory is the most in-depth, theoretically nuanced, and historically and ethnographically-informed work I have seen in fashion studies on concepts of time, memory, vintage, ‘retro,’ and authenticity. Jenss is pushing these concepts forward within an insightful framework that will have a strong impact for years to come.” Susan B. Kaiser, Interim Dean of Humanities, Arts and Cultural Studies, and Professor of Women and Gender Studies and Textiles and Clothing at the University of California, Davis, USA

Fashioning Memory is a ground-breaking exploration of the everyday dress practices of young people and their experiences of the nostalgic qualities of fashion, questioning how style is remembered, performed, transformed and reinvested across time, place and generation. Based on in-depth ethnographic research into the sartorial experiences of young sixties enthusiasts in Germany who are relocating British mod style into the 21st century, this book illuminates the sartorial and bodily engagement with memory and time and its meanings for contemporary wearers.

Street Style An Ethnography of Fashion Blogging Brent Luvaas

This cutting-edge book documents the evolution of street style photography from the fieldwork photos of early anthropology to the glamorized snapshots on blogs today, and explores the structural shifts in the global fashion industry that street style has helped bring about. Chronicling author and anthropologist Brent Luvaas’ experience of blogging through vivid street imagery and rich ethnographic detail, he shows that bloggers blur the distinction between professional and amateur, insider and outsider, self and brand. This book documents that blur from the ground level—from the streets of Philadelphia to the sidewalks of New York Fashion Week.

Fashion Studies Research Methods, Sites and Practices Edited by Heike Jenss

Exploring practical research experiences of international scholars, Fashion Studies explains how research methodologies have been applied individually, or mixed and matched, resulting in unique and rich perspectives. Case studies provide fascinating insights into the integration of quantitative and qualitative methods, object and image based research, and the need for bridging of theory and practice. Covering diverse topics such as Martin Margiela’s unorthodox archival methods, ethnographic research in street style blogging, and a material culture analysis of wearing jeans, Fashion Studies presents complex approaches in a lively manner.

With in-depth case studies including the work of Nick Knight and Helmut Newton, film examples such as The Hunger Games, music video Girl Panic by Duran Duran, the book analyses the interrelationship between clothing, identity, embodiment and self-representation.

Luxury Indian Fashion A Social Critique Tereza Kuldova

This ethnographic investigation examines the role that fashion plays in the production of the contemporary Indian luxury aesthetic. Tracking luxury Indian fashion from its production in village craft workshops via upmarket design studios to fashion soirées, Kuldova investigates the Indian luxury fashion market’s dependence on the production of thousands of artisans all over India, revealing a complex system of hierarchies and exploitation. From the cultivation of erotic capital in businesswomen’s dress to a discussion of masculinity and muscular neo-royals to staged designer funerals, Luxury Indian Fashion analyzes the production, consumption and aesthetics of luxury and power in India.

African Lace Bark in the Caribbean The Construction of Race, Class and Gender Steeve O. Buckridge

The creation of lace-bark cloth from the lagetta tree was a practice that enabled African slave women to fashion their own clothing and nurture tradition in the Caribbean diaspora. This pioneering study explores the history of Caribbean bark cloth and slave women from the 1660s to the 1920s, and in particular explores the relationship between bark cloth production and identity amongst slave women. Covering how the industry developed, the types of clothes made, the people who wore them, and the social roles played by bark cloth production, it explores the dynamics of race, class and gender in Caribbean material culture.
