Fashion is intimately tied to the material world. With a focus on diverse cultural practices, this cutting-edge study offers new insights into the dynamic relationships between fashion, bodies, and material culture. Drawing on a series of original case studies, both historical and contemporary, the collection explores how fashion and clothing shape our sense of body and self, our experiences of time and place, and our social relationships. With contributions from a range of leading international scholars, Fashion and Materiality takes the reader from Chinoiserie clothing in 18th century Europe to fast fashion in todays China. The book also examines the global exchange of material fashion objects, from clothing donations for Syrian refugees in Germany, to nomadic chic on international fashion runways. Exploring the intimate material connections between clothing, biography and emotion, this beautifully illustrated book traces the material properties of fashion and shows how dress and cultural identity are interwoven with everyday practices like buying, wearing and making clothing. Using the materiality of dress to illuminate the personal and political, Fashion and Materiality offers an invaluable new resource for teaching and research in an expanding field.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Fashion is intimately tied to the material world. With a focus on diverse cultural practices, this book offers new insights into the dynamic relationships between fashion, bodies, and material culture. In a series of original case studies, both historical and contemporary, the collection explores how fashion and clothing affect articulations of body and self, experiences of time and place, and the shaping of social and local/global relationships.With chapters from leading international scholars, Fashion and Materiality takes the reader from the study of clothing and biography, and an early modern foreign dress collection, to Chinoiserie clothing in 18th-century Europe and fast fashion production in todays China. The book also examines fashions role in nation building, and entanglements between fashion and migration across clothing donations for Syrian refugees in Germany and the circulation of refugee chic on international fashion runways. Scrutinizing the dense connections between fashion, clothing, materiality, and humanity, the book shows how the material interacts forcefully with the personal and political.
