  • Fashion-Making and Co-Creation in the Transglobal Landscape: Sino-Italian
    Modern Italy, 2019 Page 1 of 16, doi:10.1017/mit.2019.59 1 2 3 4 5 Fashion-making and co-creation in the transglobal landscape: 6 Sino-Italian fashion as method 7 8 9 Wessie Ling and Simona Segre Reinach 10 11 Department of Arts, Northumbria University, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK Department for Life Quality Studies, University of Bologna, Rimini, Italy 12 (Received 30 May 2019; final version accepted 30 September 2019) 13 14 15 Abstract The ‘making’ of fashion cannot merely refer to garment production and manufacturing. It is 16 the prerequisite for a nation to actively participate on the global stage. To establish a 17 ‘recognisable’ fashion image, a country must go far beyond the competition of a specialised 18 garment and textile industry. Being recognised as the ‘author countries’ for fashion creation 19 is part of a process in which the (re)negotiation of national hierarchies and roles are 20 constantly at play. For a country or a city, expressing an instantly recognis-able aesthetic has become an important corollary of the communication of political and economic 21 strength. More than in the past centuries, fashion has been tasked with not only reflecting 22 and representing social or individual needs, but also constructing ex novo ter-ritories in 23 which old stereotypes and imaginary are creatively set free. This is because, unlike most 24 production and commercial activities, fashion expresses an elaborate culture whose 25 composition of symbols, ideologies and lifestyles (Crane 2004) can be drawn on. On the other hand, the accelerated production relocation in past decades has irrevocably changed 26 the geography of fashion, as well as the rhetoric of the origin of national creativity.

  • Inside the SCAD FASH Guo Pei Exhibit By
    I Shall Wear a Gown: Inside the SCAD FASH Guo Pei Exhibit By Dominique S. Johnson Photo taken by Dominique Johnson Rihanna stunned the red carpet at the Met Gala in 2015 when she arrived in a striking yellow cloak. Everyone wanted to know one thing: who designed it? That night the designer, Guo Pei, received so much recognition numerous brands and designers wanted to work with her. Two years later, her rise to fame has led to her first US solo museum exhibit at SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion + Film in Atlanta. The exhibit, “Guo Pei: Couture Beyond,” features more than forty gowns, accordant footwear, and accessories from various collections by Guo. “The exhibit took two years of communication for everything to come together,” Rafael Gomes, director of Savannah College of Art and Design fashion exhibitions, says. “It was difficult because Guo Pei cannot speak English, so we had to translate our correspondence as best as we could. A lot of things got lost in translation.” In spite of the complications, Rafael and Alexandra Sachs, texecutive director of SCAD FASH, assembled a breathtaking exhibit for Guo. Since opening night in September, the museum has received more than 3,000 visitors. “Our visitors come in expecting to see the famous Rihanna dress but realize the designer has so much more to offer,” Sachs says. “It’s the wonderment and awe that draw people in.” Walking into the exhibit, visitors travel through Chinese culture and traditions. Each dress has its own incredible story. For instance, “Magnificent Gold,” shown below, from Guo Pei’s Samsara collection, took more than 50,000 hours to create.
