Maria Mackinney-Valentin, January 2010 9 10 INTRODUCTION Trends: Wanted dead or alive? Trends in fashion confuse and fascinate. Are trends created or do they create themselves? Do they reflect the surrounding context or are they essentially arbitrary? Are trends about movement or meaning; part of social interaction or simply the oil that helps grease the motor of capitalism? What is the purpose of trend theory: Marketing strategy, politics, ‘contemporary seductiveness,’ sartorial rush, social identity, escaping boredom, or analyzing consumer behavior? Do trends contribute to the survival of the human species? Or worse: Are trends on the verge of extinction? Theories analyzing trend mechanisms might soon become irrelevant if one is to believe the rumors that trends are going out of fashion, killed off by the acceleration of change and the fragmentation caused by decentralization and democratization. The rumors began already in the early 1990s. In summing up the year of fashion in 1990, fashion journalist Woody Hochswender predicted that fashion trends seemed to be moving away from the traditional mechanisms: “The cycles in fashion get shorter and shorter. How many times have the 60’s been revived since the 60’s? They’re never out long enough to be completely out. Soon all the decades will overlap dangerously. Soon everything will simultaneously be out.”1 The doomsday speculations concerning the end of trends proved to be persistent. In 1995, Efrat Tseëlon announced the rise of ”post-fashion” and suggested that trends only refer to themselves and therefore might be said to no longer exist.2 In 1999, Teri Agins, covering the fashion industry for The Wall Street Journal, also declared that the end was near: ”It’s not only the end of the millennium, but the end of fashion as we once knew it.”3 Almost a decade later in ”Fashion for All,”4 fashion writer for The Guardian Jess Cartner-Morley also explores the question of whether trends are going out of 1 ”A Little Nervous Music” in The New York Times, January 1, 1991. Accessed at www.nytimes.com on November 12, 2009. 2 The Masque of Femininity, 124. 3 The End of Fashion, 6. 4 The Guardian, October 9, 2007. 11 fashion. Covering the s/s 2008 fashion shows in Paris, she concludes that after 90 shows there was not a trend in sight: ”Don’t expect key looks next season.”5 The year after, fashion writer Erin Magner does a three-piece feature for the trend agency JC Report6 entitled “The Death of Trends” in which she suggests that the apocalyptical predictions might in fact be coming true. She explores what she calls the changing face of fashion trends where the notion of seasons has given way to a ‘24-hour fashion news cycle.’ As Magner states: “When it comes to fashion in 2008 the only prevailing trend is that there are no prevailing trends. From excess to minimalism, free-spirited ingénue to tailored sophisticate—and everything in between—designers are mining just about every culture, decade and mood to create a distinctly ‘anything-goes’ aesthetic.”7 The condition of trend mechanisms according to this ‘anything goes’ paradigm seems to be close to impossible. To support her argument, she quotes Ben Whyman, writer and lecturer at London College of Fashion for saying: “It’s always been difficult to define an era’s trends without generalizing, but nowadays, it’s difficult to even define what a trend is.”8 The point of departure of the dissertation is to define trend mechanisms in the Noughties9 when doom and anarchy rather than coral and denim seem to be predictions for next seasons’ trends. The question then is whether this development is the end of trends – or the beginning of understanding the trend mechanisms in a new way. Because, the notion of ‘anything goes’ and the prospect of a ‘24-hour fashion news cycle’ or ‘seasonless cycles’10 severely challenges the concept of temporal gaps that are assumed in the organization of the majority of trend theory – between new and old, in and out, inception and demise, innovators and laggards. This suggestion of the elimination of time lags raises the possibility that a different approach, a spatial one, might be included in the existing body of trend theory in which the focus on 5 The Guardian, October 9, 2007. 6 JC Report is a web-based trend agency with 50,000 subscribers, www.jcreport.com. 7 ”The Death of Trends: Part II” August 11, 2008. 8 ”The Death of Trends, Part 1” August 15, 2008. 9 I.e. the first decade of the 21st century. 10 Deluxe, 316. 12 dimensions, expansions, mutations, and variation may correspond better to contemporary trend mechanisms than temporal organization and ‘ceaseless revolution.’11 One of the implications in this addition is that trends move slowly rather than rapidly, which should hopefully save trends from their imminent doom. Structure and methodology The method employed in this dissertation draws on iterative processes and loosely on Sandra Harding’s notion of “strong objectivity” with focus on multidisciplinary. However, method is also a theme in itself in the development of the Rhizomatic Position in Chapter 6, which attempts to offer inspiration for a new method for describing trends and trend mechanisms as well as possibly understanding contemporary consumer behaviour. I have chosen to integrate the presentation of the structure of the dissertation with the concerns of method to sharpen the focus as well as show the integration of these aspects. Chapter 1: Terminology is concerned with clarifying and developing the terminology of trend studies within a historical framework, which allows for a more precise and comprehensive analysis of trends. The chapter is as such an attempt to consolidate the field of trend studies by foregrounding trend as the operational term rather than fashion, which tends to be the preferred term in the theory on fashion change. Though there are trends in everything from pets to politics, I have chosen to look at trends in fashion because the trend mechanisms are very clear in both the production and practice of fashion due to especially social, cultural, seductive, and economic factors.

We define fashion as an unplanned process of re- current change against a backdrop of order in the public realm. We clarify this definition after tracing fashion’s origins and history. As a social phenomenon, fashion has been culturally and economically sig- nificant since the dawn of Modernity and has increased in importance with the emergence of mass markets, in terms of both production and consumption. Most research on this topic is concerned with dress, but we argue that there are no domain restrictions that should constrain fashion theories.

One financial player who took a look at American Apparel said there’s plenty of opportunity to improve the business. Inventories, for instance, could turn much quicker. “Everyone sees the quality of the brand,” said the source, who described Charney was “a very, very tal- ented merchant,” but said he had become a one-man band, personally overseeing the company’s 249 stores. “American Apparel, as a brand, should be big abroad,” the source said, noting it could do that and maintain it’s U.S.-based production philosophy.
