- Description
- This illustrated book critiques the Eurocentric view on fashion and beauty in fashion history, museum art collections, on magazine covers and fashion catwalks. It traces the historical practices such as European colonialism and reveals unknown stories through personal contributions by Dutch and international designers, artists and models. It also contains interviews, stories and photos of leading fashion figures. The book was published on occasion of the exhibition "Voices of fashion: black couture, beauty & styles" from 13 February till 24 May 2021 by Central Museum in Utrecht.
