  • Stereo Imaging in Fashion Photography: How Hollywood (May Have) Inspired a Swiss Knitting Company in the 1950S
    Networking Knowledge 11(1) Fashion, Film, and Media Stereo Imaging In Fashion Photography: How Hollywood (May Have) Inspired a Swiss Knitting Company In The 1950s LEONIE HÄSLER1, FHNW University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland, Academy of Art and Design ABSTRACT Fashion photographs are generally two-dimensional images showing one side of a three- dimensional model. This paper, however, deals with far less well-known stereoscopic fashion photographs. Stereoscopy is a technique that creates the illusion of a 3-D image. Based on the image collection of Swiss textile and clothes company HANRO, the article analyzes the composition of 3-D pictures by putting them in a broader media-historical context. The archived stereoscopic photographs date back to the 1950s and show a series of women’s fashion. In the same period, Hollywood experienced a 3-D-boom that may have had a technical and aesthetical impact on these photographs. Although fashion is not mediated in moving images in this case study, codes or formal languages of a film are inscribed in the images, as will be shown in the following text. Building on these findings, this paper further discusses the influence of cinematography and other media practices on the fashion industry’s attempt to free its fashion imagery from the confines of a two-dimensional page. KEYWORDS Fashion; Fashion Photography; 3-D, Stereoscopy, Photography Introduction HANRO and Hitchcock, two names that could not be more different. The former may provoke a big question mark, whereas the latter conjures a myriad of images. HANRO was a Swiss textile company located near Basel.
