  • What’S Your Fetish?
    What’s Your Fetish? Recently, everyone has been telling me that I look great. “Did you dye your hair?” asked my co-worker. “Have you lost weight?” asked my best friend. “You finally found a boyfriend, didn’t you?!” shrieked my Jewish mother. “No,” I said, “I went to the Fetish Fair Fleamarket – the largest, and longest running BDSM event in New England.” It must be the afterglow. I was honored to model in The Fetish Fashion Show, which has been the kick off to the winter flea for the past seven years. The audience was packed full of people and I walked the aisle with hundreds of models wearing outifts from some of the best up-and-coming fetish wear designers as well as the more established ones. The audience was also treated to a dazzling feast for the eyes featuring aeriel silks, aeriel hoops and play piercing: Miss Mischief had majestic, bright blue feather wings (the exact same color as her hair) inserted straight through the flesh in her back. It was a sight to behold. Once the fashion show was over and the flea began, I was like a child in a candy shop with over 60 classes on kink and over 100 vendors selling everything from sex toys to kinky clothing (to even kinkier sex toys). There were so many classes that I wanted to check out like Erotic Hypnosis 101, Kink Yoga and Kissing for Maximum Erotic Effect, but I found myself caught up in meeting all the interesting people who came from all over the East Coast.

Can luxury fashion, with ostensibly an emphasis on authenticity, and its concom- itant respect for artisans and the environment, foster values of both quality and sustainability? Since individual identity continually evolves, and requires a materially referential re-imagining of self to do so, we hypothesize that actual rather than faux luxury brands can, ironically, unite the ideals of fashion with those of environmental sustainability.

As the recipient of the Stella Blum Student Research Award, I received funding which allowed me to research my dissertation at the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Archives of the Fashion Institute of Technology, the Manuscript and Archives Division of the New York Public Library, and the Margaret Herrick Library of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. I also received funding to attend the National Symposium of the CSA in Boston in May 2011, and there received many suggestions and much needed encouragement. Additionally, through the Western Regional Branch of the Costume Society, I received the Jack Hanford Summer Internship Award. I received the funding to support a summer-long internship at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art during which I learned much about the history of western fashion and had the ability to research my own project.

  • Menswear, Masculinity and Consumption in Six Online Communities
    THE NOT-SO-SECRET VICE: MENSWEAR, MASCULINITY AND CONSUMPTION IN SIX ONLINE COMMUNITIES NATHANIEL WEINER A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN COMMUNICATION AND CULTURE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO August 2019 © Nathaniel Weiner, 2019 ii Abstract Online menswear communities are online discussion forums dedicated to the discussion of men’s clothing topics such as raw denim, streetwear, suits and Ivy style. This dissertation reports findings from an online ethnography of six of these communities and fifty in-depth interviews with American, British and Canadian men who participate in them. Because fashion and consumption have historically been gendered as female or gay, the dissertation asks whether the participation of predominantly heterosexual men in these communities is representative of a shift in norms governing masculinity. It also asks what the role of consumption is in shaping the identities of these men. The researcher found that online menswear communities were organised around the consumption of clothing commodities. Consumption shaped the respondents’ experience of both online and offline spaces, while bestowing them with “fashion capital” (Rocamora, 2012) within their communities. Respondents’ ties to online menswear communities were not strong or deep enough for them to be considered subcultures, but they nonetheless acted as resources for identities; identities articulated not in terms of group-belonging, but in terms of shared preferences for “craft consumption” (Campbell, 2005). The temporary coming together of men with shared lifestyles online made online menswear communities akin to “neo-tribes” (Maffesoli, 1996). The researcher also discovered that while the respondents were not embarrassed by their engagement with clothing and shopping, they made a rhetorical distinction between the masculine pursuit of style, and the feminine following of fashion.

  • Do We Really Suffer for Fashion
    Kevin ALMOND University of Huddersfield, UNITED KINGDOM You have to suffer for Fashion An Investigation into how the body has been distorted through the cut and construction of fashionable clothing Introduction: ‘You have to suffer fashion,’ has been a much used phrase throughout the history of fashion. Degrees of suffering and discomfort have varied and we have probably all endured agonies, in some way, when constructing our appearance, in order to face the world. This could range from a simple cut from shaving, to the discomfort and pain of folding tender flesh into a girdle! These are only two, of numerous possible examples. Research Background and Objective: This paper aims to investigate how the body has been distorted, to conform to the demands of fashion, through the cut and construction of fashionable clothing. Initially it will set out to investigate some of the technical methods that have been developed to enable designers to realise fashionable silhouettes. First hand research into the costume archives of the Victoria and Albert Museum and final year 2008 fashion student’s collections from the University of Huddersfield, will facilitate an examination of relevant fashion garments through observation and handling. It will also be interesting to consider how the technology employed in the identified garments can be updated and in particular made more comfortable to wear. This would be of particular interest to fashion students and designers when developing collections. As well as enhancing technical knowledge the investigation will naturally also begin to emphasise the wider moral and health questions that arise from altering the natural shape of our bodies.

    Networking Knowledge_________ Volume 11 Issue 1 April 2018 Exploring the Intersections of Fashion, Film and Media Edited by Elisabeth Castaldo Lunden Image by Lucian Savluc. Shared under CC BY-ND 2.0. Image title: "Fashion in the Age of Social Media". Available at: htpps://www.flickr.com/photos/luciansavluc/6877192150 Networking Knowledge 11(1) Fashion, Film, and Media (April 2018) Introduction Exploring the Intersections of Fashion, Film, and Media ELIZABETH CASTALDO LUNDEN, Stockholm University Guest Editor The establishment of multi-level programs in several universities around the globe reflects the growing significance of Fashion Studies as a scholarly field. Elizabeth Wilson argues that Fashion Studies has traditionally been a branch of art history and, as such, it has followed its methods of attention to detail. As with furniture, paintings and ceramics, a major part of its project has been accurate dating of costume, assignment in some cases of ‘authorship’, and an understanding of the actual process of the making of a garment, [a practice that has often locked fashion history] into the conservative ideologies of art history as a whole (Wilson 2007, 48). However, the relatively recent expansion of Fashion Studies as an academic field has broadened the interest to engage with other areas of study. While some regard Fashion Studies as a new field of research, scholars from various disciplines within the humanities and social sciences have immersed themselves in the study of fashion, costume, and dress for decades despite the absence of a properly established academic program to encompass their interest. The interdisciplinary approach taken by these programs encourages the notion that perspectives and methods from a wide variety of disciplines inform research in Fashion Studies.
