Recenzii
A compact introductory text which has already become a go-to resource for budding fashion scholars. This updated edition will ensure its relevance for the next generation.
Fashion-ology is a path-breaking book which opened a new field of interdisciplinary research on fashion and inspired a whole generation of fashion sociologists. I strongly recommend this updated and enriched edition to anyone who is interested in the intellectual underpinnings of fashion-students, researchers, and practitioners alike.
A readable but rigorous discussion of the serious study of fashion.
