    FASHIONING GENDER FASHIONING GENDER: A CASE STUDY OF THE FASHION INDUSTRY BY ALLYSON STOKES, B.A.(H), M.A. A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND THE SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES OF MCMASTER UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY c Copyright by Allyson Stokes, August 2013 All Rights Reserved Doctor of Philosophy (2013) McMaster University (Sociology) Hamilton, Ontario, Canada TITLE: Fashioning Gender: A Case Study of the Fashion Industry AUTHOR: Allyson Stokes BA.H., MA SUPERVISOR: Dr. Tina Fetner NUMBER OF PAGES: xii, 169 ii For Johnny. iii Abstract This dissertation uses the case of the fashion industry to explore gender inequality in cre- ative cultural work. Data come from 63 in-depth interviews, media texts, labor market statistics, and observation at Toronto’s fashion week. The three articles comprising this sandwich thesis address: (1) processes through which femininity and feminized labor are devalued; (2) the gendered distribution of symbolic capital among fashion designers; and (3) the gendered organization of the fashion industry and the “ideal creative worker.” In chapter two, I apply devaluation theory to the fashion industry in Canada. This chap- ter makes two contributions to literature on the devaluation of femininity and “women’s work.” First, while devaluation is typically used to explain the gender wage gap, I also address symbolic aspects of devaluation related to respect, prestige, and interpretations of worth. Second, this paper shows that processes of devaluation vary and are heavily shaped by the context in which work is performed. I address five processes of devaluation in fash- ion: (1) trivialization, (2) the privileging of men and masculinity, (3) the production of a smokescreen of glamour, (4) the use of free labor and “free stuff,” and (5) the construction of symbolic boundaries between “work horses” and “show ponies.” In chapter three, I use media analysis to investigate male advantage in the predomi- nantly female field of fashion design.

  • FALL / WINTER 2015/2016 Fashion Opts
    THE FASHION GROUP FOUNDATION PRESENTS FALL / WINTER 2015/2016 TREND OVERVIEW BY MARYLOU LUTHER N E W Y O R K • LONDON • MILAN • PARIS A F VANDERVOORST Fashion opts for options. It’s a season of either/or. Either a mini or maxi, she/he, tough/ tender, nice/naughty, romance/reality, minimal/maximal, crafts/technology, the ladies who lunch/the ladies who breakfast. Time-traveling sped through many decades, but the favorite destinations for many designers were the late ‘60s/early ‘70s. The mini-ed Mods were followed by mini/maxi duos. By the late ‘60s it was hip to be a hippie, a Boho in Soho, living on the fringe in fringe. Pants flared. Suede was the hide of record. Peasants and gypsies were fashion role models. Hats brimmed over. Granny boots walked the streets of Haight Ashbury. As The ‘70s proceeded, Boho was upgraded to the Rich Hippie. Velvet and lace, brocade and matelassé were the fabrics of record. Ruffled and ruffed romanticism, including latter-day Victorians, flourished. All these “Me Decade” (that’s what Tom Wolfe called The ‘70s) relics have been re-discovered, remodeled and reconfigured for fall. The ‘80s were big on big. So are numbers of today’s designers, especially Phoebe Philo of Céline, Vivienne Westwood and Andreas Melbostad of Diesel Black Gold. The unisex of The ‘60s was followed by the androgyny of The ‘80s, with Giorgio Armani leading the way. The man’s jacket became the mantle of authority for the women’s movement. Tomorrow’s she/he conjoins include tuxedo jackets with full skirts, aviator jackets with evening dresses, overalls with jeweled blouses and pinstriped blazers with shirts and fur skirts.
