The majority of the photographs in the Fashion master files are posed fashion images featuring women modeling clothing made from DuPont synthetic fibers. There are images that feature children's and men's clothing as well. The fashion categories have been used as subseries and are as follows: Children and teens; Dress wear; Exports; Home furnishing; Home sewing/ fashion fabrics; Hosiery; Intimate apparel; Italian couture; Knit wear; Men's wear; New York couture; Paris couture; Sportswear/activewear; Swimwear; Touring kits; and Uniforms.

Its main purpose was to create news releases accompanied by photographs that would be run editorially by trade journals and newspapers to create inexpensive publicity and indirect advertising. To be used, the news releases had to include genuinely interesting information about a DuPont product, its development, manufacture, or applications. Direct commercial promotions of products, however, remained the work of the Advertising Department. Public Relations staff members in Product Information were assigned to specific operating departments, and they reported jointly to the heads of PR and the specific department. Product Information for Textile Fibers was handled out of that department's office in New York City's Empire State Building. This section also issued photographs and press releases for editorial use. These were designed to establish and strengthen in the reader's mind the connection between DuPont, as a maker of fibers, and the garment and fashion industry. ^ Return to Table of Contents Scope and Content This collection has been organized into three series: Fashion master files, Textile reference files, and Motion picture films and videos. Fashion master files contain photographs and press releases maintained by the Product Information department. These master files were organized first by clothing function and then by date. The majority of the photographs are posed fashion images featuring women modeling clothing made from DuPont synthetic fibers. There are images that feature children's and men's clothing as well.

  • A Critique of Female Gender Performance in Fashion
    Girls Will Be Girls: A Critique of Female Gender Performance in Fashion By Drew Gulley What am I, Loby?” she suggested – rather than asked – rhetorically. “I’m the key image in an advertising campaign. I’m the good/bad wild thing whom everybody wants, wants to be like – who prefers ninety-nine instead of one. I’m the one whom men search out from seeding to seeding. I’m the one whom all the women style their hair after, raise and lower their hems and necklines as mine rise and lower. The world steals my witticisms, my gestures, even my mistakes, to try out on each new lover.” Le Dove, The Einstein Intersection by Samuel Delany Recent moves in sociological thought have theorized a concept of gender apart from sex. While sex remains within the confines of biology, our understanding of gender is multi-layered and complex. In short, gender is a constructed creation; built brick by brick through performance. As Judith Butler writes in her seminal book, Bodies That Matter, “When the constructed status of gender is theorized as radically independent of sex, gender itself becomes a free-floating artifice, with the consequences of man and masculine might just as easily signify a female body as a male one, and woman and feminine a male body as easily as a female one” (Butler 6). Butler’s work is a radical shift from a history traditionally molded around a set of biological differences as the basis for performance at home, in the workplace, and at play. So are we, as a culture and people, also left to float when we seek to negate the binaries of ‘man’ or ‘woman?’ Where do we redefine the limits and boundaries of gender, if such fences exist? To answer these questions, I will delve into the multidimensional realm of women’s high fashion.
