A History of Textiles and Fashion in the Twentieth Century Yoruba World
Author: Mutiat Titilope OladejoPublisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527579239
Category : Design
Languages : en
Pages : 105
Book Description
From the local to the global, Yoruba people cherish textile consumption and fashion in everyday life. Central to this is the role of Yoruba women in the making of a fashion culture. As this book shows, textile commodities are entangled in global economic histories, yet the local consumption culture has created a fashion industry that portrays new ways of work and talent display beyond the twentieth century. This text is useful for researchers who wish to gain deeper insights into a critical, but often neglected, aspect of being Yoruba.
