Fashion, Representation, Femininity
Caroline Evans and Minna Thornton are co-authors of Women and Fashion: A New Look (Quartet Books, 1989). The book brings together fashion and semiotics, psychoanalysis and style, interweaving the vocabulary of fashion literature with that of cultural studies and feminist theory.
The text is a transcript of a talk given at the 1989 Art Historians Conference in London as part of a programme of papers on new perspectives in dress and fashion history.
