For more information, please contact [email protected]. ABSTRACT This audience analysis considers how two groups of mothers, one affluent and mostly white and the other low-income and mostly of color, responded to six print ads for designer children’s clothing. I argue that the gender and maternal affiliations of these women—which coalesce around their common experience of the male gaze and a belief that children’s clothing represents the embodied tastes of the mother—are ultimately overwhelmed by distinct attitudes towards conspicuous consumption, in-group/out-group signals, and even facial expressions. I conclude that, when judging the ads, these mothers engage in a vicarious process referencing their own daily practice of social interaction. In other words, they are auditioning the gaze through which others will view their own children. KEY WORDS advertising, fashion, race, mothers, children BIO Chris Boulton is a doctoral student in Communication at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.

  • Is Fashion Just Another Commodity?
    Art and Fashion in the 20th Century: Is fashion just another commodity? Jessica Griggs – April 17, 2011 This essay will present a main focus on fashion in the 1980s, with research and discussions on whether or not fashion during this decade was another commodity. This essay will begin with brief explanations of aspects in fashion during the 20th century. A description of two fashion divisions will also be noted to reveal ideas about designs for mass production and custom-based fashion. Furthermore, deliberations on the 1980s memorable and quite distinctive fashion will be analysed, bringing into account the fashion designers and styles of the decade, along with commodities and consumerism. Paris, known as the birth place for fashion, divided the creative industry of fashion into two distinct categories in the early 20th century; one division was the ‘world of couture’, which was in reality a closed style to the masses, designed only for the elite on a custom- made basis (Baudot, 1999; 11). For the average person this fashion style and class was an unattainable luxury. The other division was commonly referred as ‘off-the-peg clothes’, specifically designed for mass production and purchase (Baudot, 1999; 11). Fashion has always provided a relatively unlimited range of ways for expressing ones self in society through self-determination of the body’s image; and people in certain social groups often represent their exclusive arena for self-expression (Radford, 1998; 156). The body itself can be seen as a consuming commodity, thus in a competitive world, ‘ordinary’ appearances are not always encouraged. Advertising often prompts us to display bodily perfection with the available fashions, with the endeavour to allot ourselves satisfactory value, significance or prestige in society (Watson, 1998; 56).

    Chapter 12 Fashion Design and Merchandising Learning Objectives After completing this section the learner will be able to: zz explain the significance of fashion design and merchandising in garment industry zz describe the fundamentals of fashion zz explain the knowledge and skills required to be in fashion business zz discuss how a student can prepare for a career in fashion industry Introduction Fashion design and merchandising are among the most exciting career options in today’s world. In a country like India, where textile industries have been thriving for ages, the recent boom in fashion designing has led to new prospects in the existing domain of garment and accessory design. The fashion industry satisfies both the creative urge and the materialistic needs of people. You hear the term Fashion merchandising many times. Did you ever think what goes into it? Let us understand merchandising from its origin. You can recall from your early history lessons that barter of products and crafts was the start of trading practices. Slowly trading moved to ‘what was available was saleable’, so there were no complications 234 in distribution system. However, the year 1920 gave birth to ‘ready-to- wear’ and soon retailers realised that sale of such garments was big business. In a very short span of time, fashion apparel became the most important type of merchandise in department stores. As a result of the economic opportunities of fashion, a new specialisation came into being – Fashion Unit IV - Fabric And Apparel And IV - Fabric Unit merchandising. Significance Fashion design and merchandising will enable you to understand how the fashion business works.

  • The Wonder Women: Understanding Feminism in Cosplay Performance
    THE WONDER WOMEN: UNDERSTANDING FEMINISM IN COSPLAY PERFORMANCE by AMBER ROSE GRISSOM B.A. Anthropology University of Central Florida, 2015 B.A. History University of Central Florida, 2015 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Anthropology in the College of Sciences at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Summer Term 2019 © 2019 Amber Rose Grissom ii ABSTRACT Feminism conjures divisive and at times conflicting thoughts and feelings in the current political climate in the United States. For some, Wonder Woman is a feminist icon, for her devotion to truth, justice, and equality. In recent years, Wonder Woman has become successful in the film industry, and this is reflected by the growing community of cosplayers at comic book conventions. In this study, I examine gender performativity, gender identity, and feminism from the perspective of cosplayers of Wonder Woman. I collected ethnographic data using participant observation and semi-structured interviews with cosplayers at comic book conventions in Florida, Georgia, and Washington, about their experiences in their Wonder Woman costumes. I found that many cosplayers identified with Wonder Woman both in their own personalities and as a feminist icon, and many view Wonder Woman as a larger role model to all people, not just women and girls. The narratives in this study also show cosplay as a form of escapism. Finally, I found that Wonder Woman empowers cosplayers at the individual level but can be envisioned as a force at a wider social level. I conclude that Wonder Woman is an important and iconic figure for understanding the dynamics of culture in the United States.

  • An Intergenerational Narrative Analysis of Black Mothers and Daughters
    Still Waiting to Exhale: An Intergenerational Narrative Analysis of Black Mothers and Daughters DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jamila D. Smith, B.A., MFA College of Education and Human Ecology The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Professor Elaine Richardson, Advisor Professor Adrienne D. Dixson Professor Carmen Kynard Professor Wendy Smooth Professor Cynthia Tyson Copyright by Jamila D. Smith 2012 Abstract This dissertation consists of a nine month, three-state ethnographic study on the intersectional effects of race, age, gender, and place in the lives of fourteen Black mothers and daughters, ages 15-65, who attempt to analyze and critique the multiple and competing notions of Black womanhood as “at risk” and “in crisis.” Epistemologically, the research is grounded in Black women’s narrative and literacy practices, and fills a gap in the existing literature on Black girlhood and Black women’s lived experiences through attention to the development of mother/daughter relationships, generational narratives, societal discourse, and othermothering. I argue that an in-depth analysis and critique of the dominant “at risk” and “in crisis” discourse is necessary to understand the conversations that are and are not taking place between Black mothers and daughters about race, gender, age, and place; that it is important to understand the ways in which Black girls respond to media portrayals and stereotypes; and that it is imperative that we closely examine the existing narratives at play in the everyday lives of intergenerational Black girls and women in Black communities.

  • A Design for the Copyright of Fashion
    Boston College Intellectual Property & Technology Forum http://www.bciptf.org A DESIGN FOR THE COPYRIGHT OF FASHION Jennifer Mencken* I. INTRODUCTION Fashion apparel is a multi-billion dollar industry that has no national boundaries. Designers, [1] retailers and consumers follow the game of international fashion. Within the last decade, consumer knowledge of specific designers has increased dramatically. Magazines and newspapers now cover the fashion industry as part of their national news coverage, focusing on the ever-changing world of creative designer expressions. [2] The general public has a ready command of the names and faces of fashion models and the designers for which they model. Countless television shows and feature films [3] exploit the fashion industry world. Consumers can now recognize the distinct style of their favorite designers: Chanel, jersey-knit double-breasted suits in contrast colors with trademarked brass buttons, and quilted leather accessories; Gianni Versace, colorful handprinted silks with reproduced 17th and 18th century illustrations; Issey Miyake, sparse deconstructed gender neutral garments in natural fabrics or highly unnatural polymers, which redefine both form and movement. [4] In 1977, former Register of Copyrights Barbara Ringer stated that the issue of design protection is “one of the most significant and pressing items of unfinished business” of copyright revision. [5] This issue remains unaddressed today, even though the need for revision is even more significant, because garment designs lie along the fringe area of creative expressions that exhibit the same qualities as protected matter. This paper suggests that the traditional reasoning which denied certain articles copyright protection is no longer reasonable, and that protection should now be extended to garment designs.

You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 2 WINDOW SHOPPING: COMMERCIAL INSPIRATION FOR FASHION IN THE MUSEUM In his work on the “exhibitionary complex,” Tony Bennett (1996) showed how nineteenth-century museums and galleries were intimately connected in their design and conception to the expanding commercial architecture of the same period. The technical possibilities and visual experiences of industrial exhibitions and shopping arcades found analogous applications in museum spaces. As Mackie noted, “Both the retail shop and the public repository are designed for the display of information that is predominantly visual: looking is a means for possession as well as knowledge” (1996: 325). This blurring of commercial and intellectual cultures within the museum continues to create unease and controversy, particularly in the case of fashion exhibitions (Anaya 2013; Gamerman 2014). This chapter investigates how the introduction of fashion—an increasingly important economic and social product in the industrial period—into museums created new connections and tensions between these two worlds. It was because of its position between the disciplines of economy and history that historical fashion entered and was interpreted in museums.

  • Amber Rose's Slut Walk: the Negotiation of Femininity And
    28 Trent Notes on Linguistics, VOL 1. 2018 Amber Rose’s Slut Walk: The negotiation of femininity and masculinity to address social issues Charlotte Kennedy MA Linguistics By utilizing discourse analysis, this study explores the ways in which Amber Rose, a feminist pop-culture icon, negotiates masculinity and femininity to address social issues in front of different audiences in different contexts – a televised interview with male interviewees and a monologue in front of a predominantly female audience at a Slut Walk (a protest against sexual discrimination and violence). The primary focuses of this study are linguistic features including non-standard forms, interruptions and taboo language, and the emotional motivation behind them. The results of this study show how gender is fluid and can be negotiated and used differently in different contexts to gain power. 1. Introduction According to her Instagram tagline, Amber Rose is a ‘Mom, Bald Head Scallywag, Certified Slut, Feminist’, who lives her life with the attitude of ‘Fuck yo opinion I do what I want’ (Rose, 2015a). Since her rise to fame through stripping, modelling, acting, writing, and dating celebrities such as Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa, Amber Rose has used her stardom to shed light on social issues, specifically women’s rights, and campaigns against sexual assault and slut-shaming. As the ‘unapologetic face of neo-feminism’ (Bio, 2016), Rose has a ‘controversial yet impactful voice’ (Bio, 2016). According to Song (2015), Amber Rose has been ‘reborn as a feminist hero’, who wants to ‘empower women and help them realize that there is no shame in enjoying one’s sexuality’, and Young (2015) describes her as ‘the only woman in current circulation who wouldn’t seem miscast as Helen of Troy in the movie version of the Iliad’.
