  • Fashioning Gender Fashioning Gender
    FASHIONING GENDER FASHIONING GENDER: A CASE STUDY OF THE FASHION INDUSTRY BY ALLYSON STOKES, B.A.(H), M.A. A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND THE SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES OF MCMASTER UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY c Copyright by Allyson Stokes, August 2013 All Rights Reserved Doctor of Philosophy (2013) McMaster University (Sociology) Hamilton, Ontario, Canada TITLE: Fashioning Gender: A Case Study of the Fashion Industry AUTHOR: Allyson Stokes BA.H., MA SUPERVISOR: Dr. Tina Fetner NUMBER OF PAGES: xii, 169 ii For Johnny. iii Abstract This dissertation uses the case of the fashion industry to explore gender inequality in cre- ative cultural work. Data come from 63 in-depth interviews, media texts, labor market statistics, and observation at Toronto’s fashion week. The three articles comprising this sandwich thesis address: (1) processes through which femininity and feminized labor are devalued; (2) the gendered distribution of symbolic capital among fashion designers; and (3) the gendered organization of the fashion industry and the “ideal creative worker.” In chapter two, I apply devaluation theory to the fashion industry in Canada. This chap- ter makes two contributions to literature on the devaluation of femininity and “women’s work.” First, while devaluation is typically used to explain the gender wage gap, I also address symbolic aspects of devaluation related to respect, prestige, and interpretations of worth. Second, this paper shows that processes of devaluation vary and are heavily shaped by the context in which work is performed. I address five processes of devaluation in fash- ion: (1) trivialization, (2) the privileging of men and masculinity, (3) the production of a smokescreen of glamour, (4) the use of free labor and “free stuff,” and (5) the construction of symbolic boundaries between “work horses” and “show ponies.” In chapter three, I use media analysis to investigate male advantage in the predomi- nantly female field of fashion design.

John Galliano is working silently in the Paris studio with his friend and ally, the master milliner Stephen Jones. The designer is looking at the arc of a silhouette, the drape of a skirt and the tilt of a hat: 'I often work through a mirror for most of my decisions and I always see Stephen's reflection,' says Galliano. 'He is reading my every nuance. He is studying my face. I don't need to say anything - he can read my mind'." - From the essay by Suzy Menkes. Stephen Jones is one of the world's most talented and distinguished milliners. This exquisitely illustrated monograph is the first to examine his illustrious career and famous collaborations. Including photographs from private collections and museums, the book focuses on a variety of aspects of his work, from his collaborations with Boy George, John Galliano and Thierry Mugler to his work with photographers Bruce Weber and Nick Knight.

  • Des Plaines School of Dance Dress Code
    Des Plaines School of Dance Dress Code Proper attire is vital for the dancer’s safety and will maximize the dancer’s learning experience. It is necessary for the instructor to see the shape and line of the dancer’s body which will assist in the proper assessment of the advancement of each student. The Des Plaines School of Dance staff will be enforcing the dress code. If these requirements are not followed, parents will be notified by the instructor and the student may not be permitted to participate in class until the proper dance attire is worn. Failure to wear the appropriate dance attire will constitute one absence. We appreciate your cooperation with the compliance of the dress code for our program. Please note: We encourage a hands-on teaching approach. Instructors may need to physically readjust a student’s body, to fully correct the dancer’s placement and alignment. Dance Attire Requirements Hair must be secured away from the face in a ballet bun* for ALL classes, except Tap and Hip Hop. *Tools needed for a ballet bun: Elastic ponytail holders, bobby pins/hair pins, hair net, brush/comb, gel/hairspray.

  • FALL / WINTER 2015/2016 Fashion Opts
    THE FASHION GROUP FOUNDATION PRESENTS FALL / WINTER 2015/2016 TREND OVERVIEW BY MARYLOU LUTHER N E W Y O R K • LONDON • MILAN • PARIS A F VANDERVOORST Fashion opts for options. It’s a season of either/or. Either a mini or maxi, she/he, tough/ tender, nice/naughty, romance/reality, minimal/maximal, crafts/technology, the ladies who lunch/the ladies who breakfast. Time-traveling sped through many decades, but the favorite destinations for many designers were the late ‘60s/early ‘70s. The mini-ed Mods were followed by mini/maxi duos. By the late ‘60s it was hip to be a hippie, a Boho in Soho, living on the fringe in fringe. Pants flared. Suede was the hide of record. Peasants and gypsies were fashion role models. Hats brimmed over. Granny boots walked the streets of Haight Ashbury. As The ‘70s proceeded, Boho was upgraded to the Rich Hippie. Velvet and lace, brocade and matelassé were the fabrics of record. Ruffled and ruffed romanticism, including latter-day Victorians, flourished. All these “Me Decade” (that’s what Tom Wolfe called The ‘70s) relics have been re-discovered, remodeled and reconfigured for fall. The ‘80s were big on big. So are numbers of today’s designers, especially Phoebe Philo of Céline, Vivienne Westwood and Andreas Melbostad of Diesel Black Gold. The unisex of The ‘60s was followed by the androgyny of The ‘80s, with Giorgio Armani leading the way. The man’s jacket became the mantle of authority for the women’s movement. Tomorrow’s she/he conjoins include tuxedo jackets with full skirts, aviator jackets with evening dresses, overalls with jeweled blouses and pinstriped blazers with shirts and fur skirts.

    FRÅN TRÄSKO TILL LACKSKO En studie om folkmusikaliskt lärande innanför och utanför musikutbildningar Olle Hansson Sara Lundbeck Uppsats HT 2011 Handledare: Johan Söderman Musikpedagogik I, avancerad nivå _________________________________________________________ Uppsatser på avancerad nivå vid Musikhögskolan, Örebro universitet Sammanfattning Titel: Från träsko till lacksko En studie om folkmusikaliskt lärande innanför och utanför musikutbildningar Title in English: From clog to dress shoe A study of folk musical learning within and outside music education Denna uppsats behandlar frågor såsom vad som kännetecknar lärande av folkmusik i en institutionell och en icke-institutionell miljö samt vad som händer när folkmusik träder in i musikutbildningar. Vad är det som påverkar låtförmedlingen i de olika miljöerna? Undersökningen har sin utgångspunkt i observationer och intervjuer med representanter från en institutionell respektive icke-institutionell miljö där vi har försökt att ta reda på upplevelser av miljön, stämning, roller och prestationer. Slutsatsen av undersökningen är att de två förmedlingssituationerna är mycket lika men att intentionerna skiljer sig. I den institutionella miljön är utgångspunkten att lära sig att spela och det finns en nyttoaspekt i lärandet av låtar där syftet är att på lång sikt utvecklas inom folkmusik i stort. Inom skolan finns ett ”läxtänkande” där studenten bär ansvar för att utanför lektionerna öva på låtarna och att även där göra sin egen musikaliska tolkning av dessa. I miljöer utanför skolan handlar

The spring 2013 shows are slated to kick off in New York on Sept. 13 — a date that’s become a thorn in the Milanese side, with Mario Boselli, head of the Italian Chamber of Fashion, lashing out at a calendar he believes was foisted upon the Italians by New York’s Council of Fashion Designers of America. In 2008, the governing fashion organizations of the four fashion capitals — New York, London, Milan and Paris — agreed to kick off the collections season on the second Thursday in February and September. Sometimes — like this year — that means the New York shows start three days after Labor Day, but for the next three years, the shows will kick off the following week. Boselli claimed the sec- ond Thursday rule was only for the short term. “After three years, we should sit down and decide on the next three years, and we don’t understand why the CFDA has single- handedly set the New York show dates later in September next year,” Boselli said.
