Fashion Theory The Journal of Dress, Body & Culture
''Fashion Theory. The Journal of Dress, Body & Culture''is a scientific journal published by Berg Publisher. Launched in 1997, this journal aims to study fashion through diverse academic disciplinary lenses: from sociology to art history, from consumption studies to anthropology. In the first editorial, the founder and editor of the journal Valerie Steele argues that this journal approaches fashion "as the cultural construction of the embodied identity". The journal does not only investigate issues of body in society but it also includes studies on practices of production, dissemination and consumption of dress. Furthermore, Fashion Theory includes reviews of exhibitions and academic publications, becoming a good thermometer for the understanding of the evolution of the field of fashion studies.
