- Description
- This dissertation gives an account of what working as a fashion model entails. It provides an inside view into the field of fashion modeling, and the working lives of fashion models in particular. It addresses the basic question of what it is that male and female fashion models actually do during their work, and accordingly, how labor conditions impact how models experience their work. An additional question is how models justify how this form of work impacts their lives and their selves. This research relies on ethnographic data gathered in Paris, Amsterdam and Warsaw. Met een samenvatting in het Nederlands.

- Description
- This book places Edith Wharton and her writing in the context of fashion history and shows how dress lies at the very center of her thinking about art and culture. The study traces American patronage of the Paris couture and places Wharton’s characters in these establishments to offer new readings of her well-known novels. Less known are Wharton’s knowledge of and involvement in the craft of garment making in her tales of seamstresses, milliners, and textile workers, as well as in her creation of workshops in Paris during the First World War to employ Belgian and French seamstresses and promote the value of handmade garments in a world given to machine-driven uniformity of design and labor.

- Description
- Feminists have argued that the Barbie doll perpetuates unrealistic standards of feminine beauty and undermines the credibility of women, that her long, slender plastic limbs and tiny waist fetishize the female body in unnatural ways and that her mature, overtly fashionable image promotes consumerism and superficiality over and above women's liberty and intellect. Peers analyses in depth the doll's associations with concepts of femininity and fashionability.
