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.
