Looking historically for the imprint of fashion within everyday routines such as going to work or shopping, or in leisure activities like dancing, the book identifies the 'fashion system of the ordinary', in which clothing has a distinct role in the making of self and identity. Exploring the period from 1890 to 2010, the study is located in London and New York, cities that emerged as as socially, ethnically and culturally diverse, as well as increasingly fashionable. The book re-focuses fashion discourse away from well-trodden, power-laden dynamics, towards a re-evaluation of time, memory, and above all history, and their relationship to fashion and everyday life. The importance of place and space - and issues of gender, race and social class - provides the broader framework, revealing fashion as both routine and exceptional, and as an increasingly significant part of urban life. By focusing on key themes such as clothing the city, what is worn on the streets, the imagining and performing of multiple identities by dressing up and down, going out, and showing off, Fashion and Everyday Life makes a unique contribution to the literature of fashion studies, fashion history, cultural studies, and beyond."--Provided by publisher.Clothing and dressSocial aspectsEnglandLondonHistory20th centuryClothing and dressSocial aspectsNew York (State)New YorkHistory20th centuryFashionSocial aspectsEnglandLondonHistory20th centuryFashionSocial aspectsNew York (State)New YorkHistory20th centuryCity and town lifeEnglandLondonHistory20th centuryCity and town lifeNew York (State)New YorkHistory20th centuryHistory of fashionbicsscClothing and dressSocial aspectsHistoryClothing and dressSocial aspectsHistoryFashionSocial aspectsHistoryFashionSocial aspectsHistoryCity and town lifeHistoryCity and town lifeHistoryHistory of fashion391.009421/0904Buckley Cheryl1956-934888Clark HazelNCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910155076403321Fashion and everyday life2785656UNINA
