Clothing Cultures 10.2 is out now! Special Issue

Intellect is pleased to present Clothing Cultures 10.2!

 

Special Issue: ‘Creativity, Craft, Gender and Fashion’

 

The articles collected in this Special Issue range from investigations of current issues in ethics and sustainability, craftivism and socio-critical engagement, creative expressions in contemporary fashion practices to historical gender struggles in creative education and design schools in Denmark and at the Bauhaus. The main goal of this Special Issue is to provide multidisciplinary perspectives on craft and fashion, with a particular focus on gender, ethics and alternative models of creativity (decoupled from neo-liberal market values of extraction and growth).
