Becoming Couture - The Italian Fashion Industry After The Second World War

de Chiara Faggella

~~121,97€~~ 109,77€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Becoming couture is the first book to examine the history of the Italian fashion industry during the global transition brought about by the Second World War. It draws on a wide range of primary sources, some of them newly unearthed, to demonstrate that the Italian fashion industry in the Republican era continued to rely on business practices and professionals established during Fascism. Analysing changes in promotional discourses and press coverage, the book traces the shift that occurred when manufacturers were encouraged to expand their exports of accessories to include sportswear, knitwear and moda boutique. This ultimately led to the legitimisation of Italian dressmaking as creatively independent of French influences and therefore worthy of the label couture.

de Chiara Barbieri

~~35,49€~~ 31,94€ 10% IMEDIATO

Drawing on a wide range of primary sources and placing an emphasis on visual analysis, this book provides a model for a contextualised graphic design history as an integral part of the history of design and visual culture.

At Home With The Poor - Consumer Behaviour And Material Culture In England, C.1650-1850

de Joseph Harley

~~35,49€~~ 31,94€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book opens the doors to the homes of the forgotten poor and traces the goods they owned before, during and after the industrial revolution (c. 16501850). Using a vast and diverse range of sources, it gets to the very heart of what it meant to be poor by examining the homes of the impoverished and mapping how numerous household goods became more widespread. As the book argues, poverty did not necessarily equate to owning very little and living in squalor. In fact, its novel findings show that most of the poor strove to improve their domestic spheres and that their demand for goods was so great that it was a driving force of the industrial revolution.

The Senses In Interior Design - Sensorial Expressions And Experiences

35,49€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The senses in interior design examines how sight, touch, smell, hearing and taste have been mobilised within various forms of interiors. The chapters explore how the body navigates and negotiates the realities of designed interiors and challenge the traditional focus on star designers or ideal interiors that have left sensorial agency at the margins of design history. From the sensually gendered role of the fireplace in late sixteenth century Italy to the synaesthetic décors of Comte Robert de Montesquiou and the sensorial stimuli of Aesop stores, each chapter brings a new perspective on the central role that the senses have played in the conception, experiences and uses of interiors.

Political And Sartorial Styles - Britain And Its Colonies In The Long Nineteenth Century

129,65€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Starting with the premise that clothing is political and that analysing clothing can enhance understanding of political style, this collection explores the relationships among political theory, dress, and self-presentation during a period in which imperial and colonial empires assumed their modern form. Organised under three thematic clusters, the volumes chapters range from an analysis of the uniforms worn by West India regiments stationed in the Caribbean to the smock frock donned by rural agricultural labourers, and from the self-presentations of members of parliament, political thinkers, and imperial administrators to the dress of characters and caricatures in novels, paintings, and political cartoon. With its interdisciplinary approach, the book will appeal to nineteenth-century cultural and social historians and literary critics as well as advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students whose research and teaching interests include gender, politics, material culture, and imperialism.
