The Intellect Handbook of Men's Fashion, Gebunden

Klappentext

A fresh, global, and inclusive exploration of men's fashion that challenges traditional narratives and advances the field for scholars, educators, and practitioners.

Recent years have seen the study of men's fashion grow from an emerging topic into a vibrant and expanding field, engaging with critical conversations on gender, race, sexuality, disability, colonialism, and globalization. Reflecting this shift, this volume moves beyond traditional narratives by highlighting three key approaches: decentralizing and decolonizing men's fashion studies, embracing global perspectives, and focusing on multiple, overlapping social identities. Comprising thirty-four chapters by insightful scholars in fashion and dress studies, the collection offers a fresh and forward-looking examination of the field's development.

Primarily designed for academic audiences, this handbook serves as an ideal textbook or core reading for undergraduate and graduate courses on gender and fashion. At the same time, it appeals to fashion practitioners, curators, cultural critics, and general readers interested in the history, culture, and meaning of men's fashion and dress.
