Fashion and Cultural Studies de Susan B. Kaiser

Fashion and Cultural Studies

Autor Susan B. Kaiser, Denise N. Green
en Limba Engleză Paperback – dec 2021
Bridging theory and practice, this accessible text considers fashion from both cultural studies and fashion studies perspectives, and addresses the growing interaction between the two fields.Kaiser and Green use a wide range of cross-cultural case studies to explore how race, ethnicity, class, gender and other identities intersect and are produced through embodied fashion. Drawing on intersectionality in feminist theory and cultural studies, Fashion and Cultural Studies is essential reading for students and scholars.This revised edition includes updated case studies and two new chapters. The first new chapter explores religion, spirituality, and faith in relation to style, fashion, and dress. The second offers a critique of "beauty" and considers dressed embodiment inclusive of diverse sizes, shapes and dis/abilities. Throughout the text, Kaiser and Green use a range of examples to interrogate the complex entanglements of production, regulation, distribution, consumption, and subject formation within and through fashion.

Recenzii

The second edition of Fashion and Cultural Studies is the resource that fashion scholars, students, activists and designers need at this time of deep transformation in the field of fashion. It brings together critical theories about power and marginalization and illuminates how these frameworks advance understandings of fashion with nuance and accessibility. This book will inspire readers to question, expand and reimagine how they think about fashion in society, and it offers them the interdisciplinary worldviews to advance social justice through their own work.
Building upon the critical foundation that Susan Kaiser provided for us in 2012, Denise Green and Kaiser work collaboratively to deepen our understanding of the phenomenon of fashion, drawing upon new ways of considering Style-Fashion-Dress. Fashion and Cultural Studies is a recommended text for educators to assign in the classroom, as it offers the most robust and cogent framework for examining why we wear what we wear, focusing on its sociopolitical implications in today's climate.
This exciting book demonstrates how Fashion Theory deepens the theoretical and militant tradition of cultural studies in our time, in relation particularly to issues such as bodies, multiple identities, social inclusion, identity/alterity, spirituality. Even more than in the previous edition, the book shows how fashion can be a true political, ethical and aesthetic passion.
Fashion and Cultural Studies is an innovative, engaging, and refreshing text where Susan Kaiser and Denise Green examine the numerous entanglements of identity, fashion, style, dress, (to use their words) "both/and" the body. In the text and imagery, they center and prioritize examples from historically marginalized communities and they also engage in important critical self-reflection as white, middle-class US American women; other fashion studies scholars need to follow their example. This much-needed book is required reading for those interested in, and perhaps more importantly those not interested in, fashioning identities and justice.
