Reviews
What does post post-modernism mean for fashion's status in a world gone awry from technological, environmental and political change? At a time of radical transitions, this fresh, authoritative and critically engaging volume brings together original contributions that address this philosophical concept and its impact on the ways that fashion and dress are perceived and consumed. Read and learn. * Vicki Karaminas, Massey University, New Zealand *
This publication offers the reader a rich theoretical exploration of contemporary fashion with a good breadth of scope that encompasses exhibition and performance. Examining many of the issues pertinent to contemporary discourse, Fashion, Dress and Post-Postmodernism is an essential read for anyone researching or studying post-postmodernism and dress and fashion. * Gill Stark, Regent's University London, UK *
The book is an essential and relevant theoretical source for the fashion and dress research sphere. There is no doubt as to its importance for scholars on this particular topic, but also on broader issues such as post postmodernity and its implications, fashion curatorship, sustainability, and the climate crisis, fashion houses in the twenty first century, and sociological studies dealing with the practices of the new subject. * The Journal of Dress History *
