Fashioned in the north showcases stories of images, photographers,
publications and institutions that have attracted minimal attention
outside the local Nordic academic community. The authors of the
book examine the reasons for, and implications of this
under-exposure to use a photographic metaphor. The domain of
fashion photography studies is widened here and the texts challenge
often taken-for-granted ideas of centre and periphery in the
discipline. The hybridity of this approach adds new nuances that
enrich the knowledge in the field. The contributors discuss fashion
photography as a transnational phenomenon, a material object, as
medium and part of a media system, and as the result of archival
systems and history writings. They show how in depth studies of
this kind can offer so much more than focusing on but a few agents,
iconic images, individual or periodic style. Indeed, casestudies
like these serve as a prism through which we can reveal cultural,
social, economic and ideological aspects of society as these are
reflected in fashion photography.
