The New Latin American Fashion Reader
The New Latin American Fashion Reader invites readers to engage with key questions and participate in contemporary debates around decolonisation, sustainability, and agency, in the context of Latin American fashion production and design.
With its publication in 2005, The Latin American Fashion Reader established a more diverse and inclusive approach to fashion, encouraging explorations of historical foundations, altered cultural landscapes, and the potential to understand consumption trends more fully. Since then, Latin American fashion’s presence on the international stage has grown amidst an urgent need for decolonisation, increased representation, and sustainability during moments of political upheaval.
Taking up the story where The Latin American Fashion Reader left off, this multi-authored book allows contributors from the Americas and beyond, many of whom have encountered challenges to their craft and work, to share their experiences, ideas, and knowledge.
