Laura Gardner September 29, 2019 i acknowledgements This work and research took place on land of the Woi wurrung and Boon wurrung language groups of the eastern Kulin Nations. I acknowledge their Elders, both past and present as the original custodians of this land, and recognise the ongoing and unresolved legacies of the colonisation of Australia. I thank my supervisors Brad Haylock and Ricarda Bigolin (and Jessica Bugg, who started the research with me) for guiding me over the course of this long study. Their expertise, mentoring, criticism and advocacy of this work, and Mode and Mode, has been invaluable. I acknowledge and thank Robyn Healy for being an ongoing supporter of my research and work, and for lending her expertise as a reader in the final stages. I have been fortunate to undertake this research and practice in the School of Fashion and Textiles at RMIT, amongst an encouraging and critical community of practice research. This research project has been enriched by many colleagues, collaborators, pals and family, who have supported, mentored, and collaborated with me and Mode and Mode. This list includes Adam Cruickshank, Adele Varcoe, Agnieszka Chabros, Alice Lewis, Anja Aronowsky Cronberg, Annie Wu, Arabella Kilmartin, Blake Barns, Caroline Stevenson, Cassandra Wheat, Chantal McDonald, Daphne Mohajer va Pesaren, Femke de Vries, Fleur Watson, Hanka van der Voet, Hannah Chamley, Harriette Richards, Jael Rincon, Jane Morley, Jeanne Hendrey, Jenny Grigg, Johannes Reponen, Jordan Heng, Kate Rhodes, Kate Sala, Layla Cluer, Mary-Lou Berkolin, Matthew Linde, Megan Patty, Nella Themelios, Nicholas Gardner, Olivia Radonich, Ruby Hoette, Saša Štucin, Sean Ryan, Spencer Lai, Stephen Banham, Stuart Geddes, Tim Coster, William Massey, Winnie Ha Mitford and Ziga Testen. From these, I single out and also thank our Mode and Mode subjects and collaborators, their willingness, input and individual practices, have made the project what it is. I acknowledge the generous contributions from Shahan Assadourian, Ines Kaag, Desiree Heiss, Seth Shapiro, Michiel Keuper, Francisco van Benthum, Danny van den Dungen, Erwin Brinkers, Marieke Stolk, Mila Ganeva, Helen Hessel, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Kate Meakin and Jessie Kiely. Further thanks to the practitioners who lent their time and insight for a research interview in this study: Ann-Sofie Back, Beca Libscombe, Johannes Schweiger and Lucy McKenzie. And I thank Birgit Ansoms for allowing me access and explore the collection of the MoMu library, Antwerp in the research. I also thank Sarah Gory for carefully proofreading the dissertation. I thank Karina Soraya, collaborator and friend, who has been on Mode and Mode from the beginning. This research would unquestionably not be what it is without her involvement. To Citi (the cat), for her support in ways she will never know. I thank my parents; their constant support—in varying forms—is probably the reason why I started this PhD in the first place, and almost certainly helped me finish it. And to Rowan; for joking, reading, talking, cooking, assessing and supporting this work beyond the scope of these acknowledgements. ii contents Summary of study 1 0.

Timeline of practice: Mode and Mode 181 Appendix 4: Letter of approval from RMIT Human Research Ethics Committee 182 v summary of study This study posits the productive difference of marginal fashion publishing in fashion framed through the research questions: What does it mean to publish fashion? and: What are the values and effects of marginal publishing? This is addressed through a hybrid practice-led approach that positions the publication project Mode and Mode as central in the research enquiry. Scholars have identified a lack of research on fashion media, especially considering its vital role in the production and consumption of fashion. As Agnès Rocamora notes, ‘little is known about its discourse: about the objects it creates and represents, cities such as Paris included; about the values it conveys and is informed by; and about the way it operates qua discourse.’ (Rocamora, 2009, p.3) To address these gaps, this study explores practices marginal to dominant entities in the fashion industry, additionally informed by how, in the fields of art, architecture and design, alternative and avant-garde publishing projects interrogate ‘the page as a productive space for experimentation’ (Senior, 2013, p.10). The potential of experimental and small-scale practices is substantiated by Teal Triggs who, in the context of the discipline of graphic design, argues that ‘self-produced design publications provide valuable insights into the theoretical and visual concerns that enrich our understanding of the history of the profession, graphic artefacts and their cultural contexts.’ (Triggs, 2009, p.338) In order to contribute to fashion studies, fashion practice and research on marginal publishing projects (a status relational to commercial and traditional practices in the fashion industry), a hybrid practice- led thesis approach positions the serial publishing project Mode and Mode as integral in the research.

  • “Down the Rabbit Hole: an Exploration of Japanese Lolita Fashion”
    “Down the Rabbit Hole: An Exploration of Japanese Lolita Fashion” Leia Atkinson A thesis presented to the Faculty of Graduate and Post-Doctoral Studies in the Program of Anthropology with the intention of obtaining a Master’s Degree School of Sociology and Anthropology Faculty of Social Sciences University of Ottawa © Leia Atkinson, Ottawa, Canada, 2015 Abstract An ethnographic work about Japanese women who wear Lolita fashion, based primarily upon anthropological field research that was conducted in Tokyo between May and August 2014. The main purpose of this study is to investigate how and why women wear Lolita fashion despite the contradictions surrounding it. An additional purpose is to provide a new perspective about Lolita fashion through using interview data. Fieldwork was conducted through participant observation, surveying, and multiple semi-structured interviews with eleven women over a three-month period. It was concluded that women wear Lolita fashion for a sense of freedom from the constraints that they encounter, such as expectations placed upon them as housewives, students or mothers. The thesis provides a historical chapter, a chapter about fantasy with ethnographic data, and a chapter about how Lolita fashion relates to other fashions as well as the Cool Japan campaign. ii Acknowledgements Throughout the carrying out of my thesis, I have received an immense amount of support, for which I am truly thankful, and without which this thesis would have been impossible. I would particularly like to thank my supervisor, Vincent Mirza, as well as my committee members Ari Gandsman and Julie LaPlante. I would also like to thank Arai Yusuke, Isaac Gagné and Alexis Truong for their support and advice during the completion of my thesis.

    Child’s Play? Exploring the Significance of Kawaii for Decora and Fairy-Kei Fashion Practitioners in Harajuku through a Case-Focused Analysis MEGAN CATHERINE ROSE UNSW Sydney and The University of Tokyo https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7741-854X ABSTRACT Literature that explores alternative kawaii (‘cute’; ‘adorable’) fashion associated with Harajuku, Japan, argues that it is an infantile practice in which practitioners seek to reject adult thoughts, feelings and responsibility through childish mannerisms and dress. These understandings ofkawaii fashion, however, are formed without input from practitioners themselves. Drawing upon a case-focused analysis of alternative kawaii fashion practitioners in Harajuku derived from semi-structured interviews, this article seeks to contribute to this discussion from a sociological perspective. The article focusses on decora and fairy kei, two alternative kawaii fashion styles in Harajuku that typically To link to this article: incorporate toys and clothing intended for children, and in doing so blur https://doi.org/10.21159/nvjs.12.05 the boundaries between acceptable attire for children and adults.

  • Florence Nelson Kennedy FASHION ILLUSTRATOR
    ^sp-""* ' Florence Nelson Kennedy FASHION ILLUSTRATOR Pat Kennedy Crump lorence Nelson Kennedy often called herself a "stubborn Swede." Determined would have been a better description. She started to draw at an early age and loved doing it; she ac­ knowledged that she was an artist and deter­ Fmined to pursue a career in fashion illustration. At first, she may not have known that this ambition had great potential in her time. In the early decades of the twentieth century, opportunities were plentiful for commercial artists of all types, as advertising and pub­ lishing depended heavily on illustration, rather than photography. One means of preparing for such a career, espe­ cially for students who lived far from metropolitan ar­ eas, was instruction by mail. Universities had proven that home study was an excellent method of training, but it was a new idea in the field of commercial art. The Federal School of Commercial Designing, estab­ lished in Minneapolis in 1914, was adapted from a thor­ ough course employed by the Bureau of Engraving, a Minneapolis printing and engraving firm. Early school advertisements drew immediate responses, and the firm's success grew. The school started thousands of artists on successful careers, and Florence Nelson Ken­ nedy was one of them.'
