  • Made in Italy 2.0
    MADE IN ITALY 2.0 Searching for the Characteristics of Contemporary Italian Fashion in the Context of Fashion Design Education in Italy Marina Holma Centre for Fashion Studies Master's Thesis 30 ECTS Master's Programme in Fashion Studies (120 ECTS) Spring term 2014 Supervisor: Louise Wallenberg Abstract “Made in Italy” is a phenomenon widely researched in economic, historical and cultural studies (including fashion studies). The research about this topic mostly refers to the fast economic development in post-WWII Italy, in which fashion played a major role. My thesis, however, analyzes the “Made in Italy” concept in contemporary Italian fashion, which I refer to as “Made in Italy 2.0.” In order to understand how Italian style can be characterized today, I conducted interviews in five design schools in Italy located in the different fashion cities of the country: IED and Politecnico (Milan), IUAV (Venice), Polimoda and IED (Florence). I then analyzed my collected data and compared it to the characteristics of the “Made in Italy” fashion of the second half of the twentieth century discussed by various scholars, thus discovering what are the truly contemporary features of Italian fashion. Keywords: contemporary Italian fashion, fashion design education in Italy, Made in Italy. 2 Table of Contents Chapter 1.

  • 80S 90S FACING BEAUTIES. Italian Fashion and Japanese Fashion at a Glance
    80s 90s FACING BEAUTIES. Italian Fashion and Japanese Fashion at a Glance. Museo della Città - Ala Nuova Rimini 11 ottobre - 8 dicembre 2013 Considerations After a Fashion Exhibit by Simona Segre Reinach. (Associate Professor of Fashion Studies, University of Bologna, Rimini Campus). Fashion curation has become a central preoccupation within fashion studies. Several articles have been written on the subject - illustrating the development, ambivalences and controversies that such a practice entails: the controversy about Diana Vreeland (Steele 2008), the role of exhibitions within the “new fashion history” (M. Riegels 2011, C. Breward 2008), the theoretical (and visual) ambivalences in representing West and East in fashion (Fukai 2010). Nowadays curation seems to be a particularly hot issue in fashion theory. The popularity of fashion in museums goes hand in hand with a new broader reception of what constitutes art, as well as a growing interest in fashion studies. (Fukai 2010b, Riegels 2011). Moving from dress museology to fashion museology entails a change into the practice and methodologies of curation (M. Riegels 2011). This is because fashion exhibits are more and more attracting people in museums and because, for both scholars and students, it is a way of experimenting with the materiality of fashion. It can be argued that there is a continuum, rather than a separation, between different ways in which fashion is exposed: retail, catwalk shows, fashion blogs are all involved in curation - that is in choosing the ways in which to transfomr cloths and garments into specific fashion statements. On the other hand, the experience of professional fashion curators is totally crucial in deciding what is a real exhibit, and what it is just a communication device.
