FASH 212 Historical & Contextual Studies
In Historical and Contextual Studies you will be introduced to studying fashion from a historical and contextual viewpoint. The course will introduce fashion as a cultural phenomenon that will enable you to develop an analytical approach to contemporary fashion. Fashion is understood as object, image and idea and will be explored as such through the analysis of designs, images and ideas. The course will explore the links between clothing and other mediums and will be thematic as well as historically chronological in approach. You will be introduced to methods of enquiry and terminology which you will be able to use in your own marketing and/or design practice.
