  • HISTORY and DEVELOPMENT of FASHION Phyllis G
    HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF FASHION Phyllis G. Tortora DOI: 10.2752/BEWDF/EDch10020a Abstract Although the nouns dress and fashion are often used interchangeably, scholars usually define them much more precisely. Based on the definition developed by researchers Joanne Eicher and Mary Ellen Roach Higgins, dress should encompass anything individuals do to modify, add to, enclose, or supplement the body. In some respects dress refers to material things or ways of treating material things, whereas fashion is a social phenomenon. This study, until the late twentieth century, has been undertaken in countries identified as “the West.” As early as the sixteenth century, publishers printed books depicting dress in different parts of the world. Books on historic European and folk dress appeared in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. By the twentieth century the disciplines of psychology, sociology, anthropology, and some branches of art history began examining dress from their perspectives. The earliest writings about fashion consumption propose the “ trickle-down” theory, taken to explain why fashions change and how markets are created. Fashions, in this view, begin with an elite class adopting styles that are emulated by the less affluent. Western styles from the early Middle Ages seem to support this. Exceptions include Marie Antoinette’s romanticized shepherdess costumes. But any review of popular late-twentieth-century styles also find examples of the “bubbling up” process, such as inner-city African American youth styles. Today, despite the globalization of fashion, Western and non-Western fashion designers incorporate elements of the dress of other cultures into their work. An essential first step in undertaking to trace the history and development of fashion is the clarification and differentiation of terms.

  • Tretorn Debuts the André 3000 Benjamin Spring 2018 Footwear Collection
    TRETORN DEBUTS THE ANDRÉ 3000 BENJAMIN SPRING 2018 FOOTWEAR COLLECTION NEW YORK, NY – NOVEMBER 2, 2017 – Tretorn, the iconic Swedish footwear and outerwear brand and André 3000 Benjamin, a globally renown recording artist, songwriter, actor, designer and style icon, will debut the first-ever footwear collection by André 3000 Benjamin exclusively at ComplexCon on November 4th, 2017. The highly anticipated collection was inspired by André’s personal connection to the shoe as he was growing up in Atlanta. From André’s original sKetches to the completed line, the classic Nylite has been infused with the style icon's playful spirit and design sensibility. Until now, André’s prowess as a sKetch artist and painter has most famously been seen adorning the CDs inside the jewel cases from each album released by his Grammy Award winning, multi-platinum rap duo, Outkast. For the Tretorn collaboration, André has once again created original sKetches that are being integrated into the capsule’s branding - from his ant logo on the box, to sKetches on the tissue paper inside. “Growing up, we'd all put our personal stamp onto the blanK canvas of the Nylite and I'd sKetch out my own designs," says Benjamin. “This collaboration felt liKe fun because it brought me bacK to that place of personalizing these original designs.” “André’s playful spirit and bold style are highlighted in this spring capsule collection which brings Andre’s unique twist to Tretorn's classic footwear silhouettes.” said Natasha Fishman, EVP MarKeting ABG, owner of the Tretorn brand. The “I André Benjamin will not draw in class” capsule collection features 10 unique designs including updates to the classic Tretorn styles.
