Fashion, either haute couture or everyday, conjures up an idealized world where form, function, art, and artifice are skillfully balanced by mavens and madmen. Beyond the runway, fashion is a thriving force of cultural dissemination and social responsibility. In this course, students explore how the current and historical fashion industry has made a lasting impact on the social and cultural beliefs and experiences of all consumers of fashion.
