Fashion Foundations
«'It [Fashion Foundations] goes beyond the basic expectation of a book in the 'foundations' of a discipline that provides merely an understanding of the roots of current thought, and instead, as it is organized through current thematic concerns, allows a rethinking of the issues that govern current fashion theory in a manner that is generally interdisciplinary.' Sophie Woodward, University College for the Creative Arts/Nottingham Trent University, The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute (Vol 13, No 3, Sep 2007)»
Although it can be difficult to think of fashion in anything other than a contemporary context, as a concept it is hardly new. Costume historians trace the birth of fashion back to the thirteenth century and writings on fashion date back as early as the sixteenth century when Michel de Montaigne pondered its origins, thereby setting in motion a chain of inquiry that has continued to intrigue writers for centuries.
