The Fashion Show Goes Live
Exclusive and Mediatized Performance Rebecca Halliday, Ryerson University, Canada The Fashion Show Goes Live analyses the mode and impact of fashion shows’ transmission. Through experimental film, fashion shows tailored for media transmission and the use of live streaming and social media to render shows ‘immediate’ to consumers, fashion shows have become not just trend barometers but material sites that demonstrate media’s effects. Rebecca Halliday evaluates the performativity of consumer relations to such live streams and other mediatized content, demonstrating that despite democratized, international access to content, the shows themselves remain exclusive and aspirational. Through its analysis, this book challenges the notion that the mediatization of fashion shows has fostered inclusivity.
