«Fantastic resource for fashion theory!»
Irene Grasser, Design Academy of Fashion, South Africa
«Introducing Fashion Theory: From Androgyny to Zeitgeist illustrates the scholarly study of fashion in addition to helping students and fashion professionals understand the complexity, meaning, and direction of fashion. Using historic, cultural, and current fashion examples, the book helps explain our everyday clothing habits and the paradoxical nature of fashion»
