Time to Carve up the Worst Fashion Fads FASHION TURKEY AWARDS By DeBra D. Bass • [email protected] > 314-340-8236 Time to carve up the worst fashion fads efore the serious season of Black Friday power shopping, holiday decorating, gift-picking overload and end-of-the-year time crunches takes its toll, let’s sit back and reflect on something that’s not so serious. We give you the Fifth Annual Fashion Turkey Awards. These are items that inspire our mirth. BThese are items we consider fads in the worst sense of the word — popular for being popular, worn without consideration and therefore uninspired. In short, these are trends we wish would go away. First on our list is HairUWear or any other variety of the oddly hued clip-on wiglets. The last straw for us in ushering this product onto our list of 2011 Fashion Turkeys was the introduction of the animal print extension. The 1-inch clip-in exten- sions ($10) are in shades of neon pink, ginger (pictured) and electric blue tiger stripes. We didn’t actually mind the Native American vibe of the clip-in feathers (until there were reports of feather shortages and people raiding fishing shops to strip lures), but this is the usual modus operandi of a fashion turkey. People don’t know when to say when. If a slim feather is nice, a neon purple tiger stripe must be better, right? Wrong. This must stop now, or we’ll have people with faux dinosaur bones hanging from their hair next. The feathers had a moment. That moment has officially expired. Anything else is just too painful to consider. And speaking of painful, the latest fashion fad term is Plastic surgery gone mad. Maybe it’s “jweats,” and if you’re thinking “oh, no, it can’t be” then the ubiquitousness of Carson Kressley you’ve probably guessed that this is a jeans-sweatpant hy- and the legions of people with immobile brid.

Isn’t that what iP- hone apps are for? We love a statement watch, it’s the most prominent piece of jewelry a typical guy can subscribe to, but you don’t want to make this statement. 2011 FASHION SWANS Well, now that we’ve gotten that off our chests, let’s gander at our 2011 Fashion Swans. Trends tend to balance out from year to year and overall, we’re happy that, in our estimation at least, the good trends are still winning (and, no, not in a Charlie Sheen kinda way). New sweater shapes. We are loving the relaxed knits with asymmetrical hems, sleeves that bell and fit, and the nontraditional cowl-meets-boat necks. A particular favorite is anything cashmere like this selection from Garnet Hill ($158) in an asymmetrical shape that shuns all squares. It has three-quarter sleeves and a flattering tunic length. The right mix of fix and ease. Capes. What’s not to love about a flat- tering outer layer that is warm and cozy. It’s technically a mini-slanket without the sleeves, but we’re not focusing on that. We’re smitten. It looks great with elbow-length leather gloves and that makes it wonderful in our eyes. Some argue that they aren’t the most flattering item, but after a few holiday dinners this might be the most flattering item we own. Bali retro high-waisted half slip. Shapewear continues to have a mo- ment, and if it’s the go-to staple of every Hollywood starlet, who are we to shun it. Many of them are so enthused that they are wearing their undies as outerwear. (That’s defi- nitely a turkey, even if you’re a rock star. People look better in bottoms that aren’t body suits. Yes, even Be- yonce and Lady Gaga.) Wool jacket/leather sleeves. Sign us up. Actually, any of the contrast sleeving going on is fine with us. It’s a great way to change a silhouette. Wool coats and casual jackets with unexpected sleeves in another shade of wool or a different texture than the body have a slightly futuristic look that tends to land on the right side of the swan/turkey divide..

Clothing can express cultural norms, serve as shorthand for social grouping, and provide a kind of corpus of visual allusion; in short, clothes and how we wear them constitute a system of signification, a visual language as dynamic, complex, and arbitrary as any spoken communication.

  • The Process of Becoming with the Clothing We Wear
    PERFORMING FASHION OUTSIDE OF THE BINARY: THE PROCESS OF BECOMING WITH THE CLOTHING WE WEAR By DEIRDRE GAINE Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Gender Studies Supervisors: Hyaesin Yoon and Hadley Zaun Renkin CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2016 Abstract Clothing comprises a significant aspect of the intelligibility of all gendered behavior, acts, citations; as Butler understands gender to be a “surface signification,” (1990) I argue that clothing cannot be considered separate from gender itself. Together with clothing, a person becomes intelligible/unintelligible and their clothing conveys or conceals aspects of their gender identity and embodiment. Therefore, I consider clothing to play an important role in negotiating one’s intelligibility as nonbinary. In this thesis, I build on Butler’s theory of performativity (1990) by demonstrating how gender is an effect of the process of becoming with the clothing we wear and consider the citation of gender norms to be an “intra-active” practice (Barad 1999). Through the process of conducting in-depth interviews with self-identified trans*1 and gender non-conforming people, I analyze how my interviewees “intra-act” with their clothing negotiating its citationality and embedded meanings in relation to their gender identities in an effort to establish intelligibility and authenticity. I use the term “intra-act” because I want to contest the idea of distinguishable boundaries between the physical body and clothing. The idea of considering the enactment of gender as an intra-active practice is necessary to establish my further discussion of visibility and/or intelligibility of one’s gender identity in clothing.
