Who Decides the Color ofthe Season? How the Première Vision Trade Show Changed Fashion Culture.Building on Regina Lee Blaszczyk's go-to history of the "color revolution" in the United States, this book explores further transatlantic and multidisciplinary dimensions of the topic. Covering history from the mid nineteenth century into the immediate past, it examines the relationship between color, commerce, and consumer societies in unfamiliar settings and in the company of new kinds of experts. Readers will learn about the early dye industry, the dynamic nomenclature for color, and efforts to standardize, understand, and educate the public about color. Readers will also encounter early food coloring, new consumer goods, technical and business innovations in print and on the silver screen, the interrelationship between gender and color, and color forecasting in the fashion industry.Worlds of Consumption,2945-6029CivilizationHistoryWorld historyLaborHistoryEconomic historyEconomicsCultureCultural HistoryWorld History, Global and Transnational HistoryLabor HistoryEconomic HistoryCultural EconomicsCivilizationHistory.World history.Labor.History.Economic history.Economics.Culture.Cultural History.World History, Global and Transnational History.Labor History.Economic History.Cultural Economics.306.09535.609Blaszczyk Regina Leeedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSpiekermann Uweedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910254767003321Bright Modernity2040947UNINA
