Fashion and the Consumer Revolution in Contemporary Russia: Routledge Contemporary Russia and Eastern Europe Series

Autor Olga Gurova
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 oct 2017
This book explores how clothing consumption has changed in Russia in the past 20 years as capitalism has grown in a postsocialist state, bringing with it a "consumer revolution." It shows how there has been and continues to be a massive change in the fashion retail market and how ideal lifestyles portrayed in glossy magazines and other media have contributed to the consumer revolution, as have shifts in the social structure and everyday life. Overall, the book, which includes the findings of extensive original research, including in-depth interviews with consumers, relates changes in fashion and retail to changing outlooks, identities, and ideologies in Russia more generally. The mentioned changes are also linked to the theoretical concept of fashion formed in postsocialist society.

Descriere

This book explores how clothing consumption has changed in Russia in the past twenty years as capitalism has emerged in a post-socialist state, bringing with it a "consumer revolution" or possibly, the author suggests, overconsumption. It shows how there has been and continues to be a massive growth in the fashion retail market, how ideal lifestyles portrayed in glossy magazines and other media have contributed to this, as have changes in the structure of economic institutions and markets.
