* An essential reference for students, curators and scholars of
fashion, cultural studies, and the expanding range of disciplines
that see fashion as imbued with meaning far beyond the material. *
Over 300 in-depth entries covering designers, articles of clothing,
key concepts and styles. * Edited and introduced by Valerie Steele,
a scholar who has revolutionized the study of fashion, and who has
been described by The Washington Post as one of "fashion's
brainiest women." Derided by some as frivolous, even dangerous, and
celebrated by others as art, fashion is anything but a neutral
topic. Behind the hype and the glamour is an industry that affects
all cultures of the world. A potent force in the global economy,
fashion is also highly influential in everyday lives, even amongst
those who may feel impervious. This handy volume is a one-stop
reference for anyone interested in fashion - its meaning, history
and theory. From Avedon to Codpiece, Dandyism to the G-String,
Japanese Fashion to Subcultures, Trickle down to Zoot Suit, The
Berg Companion to Fashion provides a comprehensive overview of this
most fascinating of topics and will serve as the benchmark guide to
the subject for many years to come.
