Fashion practice in early modern Europe -- pt. 2. The politics and practice of fashion in the long nineteenth century -- pt. 3. Fashion strategies, global practice. 330 $aThroughout history, fashion has emerged as one of the most powerful driving forces determining the political, economic and social ramifications of the production, distribution and circulation of goods. Indeed fashion, especially in relation to clothing and textiles, shapes the relationship between self and society in unique ways. In this light, the collected papers in this volume position fashion as the lens - the critical mediating force - through which to analyse and understand cultural, economic and political shifts within a broad spectrum of societies in Europe, Asia, Africa and America from the seventeenth to twenty-first centuries. Topics include a seventeenth-century failing fashion region, the material politics of marketing American abolitionist fashions, the construction of a fashionable ethos for French perfumes, and the use and meanings of clothing and textiles in the politics of Nigerian silk robes and early modern domestic de?cor in Europe. This volume represents an important shift in scholarship towards a more in-depth understanding of the role of fashion in early modern and modern times and will appeal to international readers interested in material culture, fashion, consumer studies and cultural anthropology, among other areas. 410 0$aHistory of retailing and consumption. 606 $aFashion$xHistory 606 $aFashion$xPolitical aspects 606 $aClothing trade$xHistory 606 $aTextile industry$xHistory 606 $aAdvertising$xFashion$xHistory 606 $aRetail trade$xHistory 606 $aConsumption (Economics)$xHistory 615 0$aFashion$xHistory. 615 0$aFashion$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aClothing trade$xHistory. 615 0$aTextile industry$xHistory. 615 0$aAdvertising$xFashion$xHistory. 615 0$aRetail trade$xHistory. 615 0$aConsumption (Economics)$xHistory. 676 $a746.9/2 701 $aLemire$b Beverly$f1950-$0910266 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154983103321 996 $aThe force of fashion in politics and society$92037440 997 $aUNINA
