Fashion, Society, and the First World War

International Perspectives

Edited by Maude Bass-Krueger, Leiden University, the Netherlands, Hayley EdwardsDujardin, Independent Scholar, France & Sophie Kurkdjian, Centre national de la recherche scientifique, France The historiography of the Great War has been significantly renewed in recent years, yet, despite its crucial social, economic, and cultural importance, the role that fashion played in shaping wartime experiences and economies has not yet been addressed. This open access collection fills this gap in the literature by examining the impact the Great War had on fashion, its industry, and civilians in a transnational context. With contributions from leading experts, Fashion, Society and the First World War explores wartime style and the reframing of selfhood, gender roles, and national identity through clothing and print culture. This book is available open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. It is funded by Knowledge Unlatched.

Through object-based case studies of garments from the ancient past through to the 21st century, Margaret Maynard reveals the countless ways the temporal is woven into our attire. Dressed in Time is essential reading for students and scholars of fashion and dress history, material culture studies, cultural anthropology, archaeology and related fields.

Fashioning Spain

From Mantillas to Rosalía

Edited by Francisco Fernández de Alba, Wheaton College, USA & Marcela T. Garcés, Siena College, USA From female liberation to Franco’s dictatorship, Spain has experienced significant cultural changes in the 20th and 21st centuries. Simultaneously, its fashion cultures have undergone seismic shifts: women caused uproar by wearing pants in 1911 Madrid, Balenciaga shot to international stardom, and the mantilla took on dual meanings of angel and whore. In the first book to explore the history of Spanish fashion in this eventful period, expert authors reveal how fashion reacts to, mirrors, and even critiques the world around it.
