Volume II reveals the challenges of fashion from the nineteenth-century to the present day, highlighting how decolonisation, social change and the call for sustainability shifted fashion practice across world communities. An interdisciplinary volume that draws on work across history, art, economics and sustainability.
Volume II surveys the history of fashion from the nineteenth-century to the present day. Covering the period beginning with mass industry and ending with calls for sustainability, this volume challenges the meaning of modernity and modernism from a global perspective and reflects on important scholarship that has changed our understanding of the relationship between fashion and colonialism. Empires shifted and new powers rose, with fashion marking and contending with this change. The volume concludes with a critical view of fashion and globalisation, and explores the deep connections between the fashion industry, the global economy, and the politics of production and wearing in the contemporary world.
