Book Description
Dangerously, seductively attractive, the femme fatale's unique magnetism has drawn everyone from nineteenth-century writers to 1960's filmmakers. Her impact can also be seen in style icons such as Jean Harlow and Brigitte Bardot. Until now, however, this archteype's influence on fashion has been unrecognized. This Special Edition of Fashion Theory covers topics ranging from fashion and the white savage in the Parisian music hall to weaponizing the femme fatale, and offers the first detailed account of this enduringly fascinating figure's style legacy.

Book Description
The importance of studying the body as a site for the deployment of discourses is well-established. By contrast, the study of dress has traditionally suffered from a lack of critical analysis. Fashion Theory takes as its starting point a definition of fashion as the cultural construction of the embodied identity. It provides an international and interdisciplinary forum for the analysis of cultural phenomena ranging from foot binding to fashion advertising. Fashion Theory provides a vital contribution to cultural studies, art, history, literary criticism, anthropology, fashion history, media studies, gender studies, folklore studies and sociology. It is multi-disciplinary, features international coverage and is heavily illustrated.
