9780415900621: Fabrications: Costume and the Female Body-

Synopsis

Fabrications begins with a single germ in feminist film theory--the "to-be-looked-at" aesthetic described by Laura Mulvey--and pushes it further, considering the pleasures women derive from consumer culture against the social costs they have paid as wife, mother, and worker. Here, American feminist film theory converges with British cultural studies; critics survey the connections between the female consumer and the female viewer, the motion picture industry and the ready wear industry, the fashion in critical theory and the fashion in clothes. Contributors: Jeanne Allen, Sarafina K. Bathrick, Charles Eckert, Jane M. Gaines, Charlotte Herzog, Angela McRobbie, Betsy Holdsworth Nielson, Laurie Schulze, Gaye Studlar, Maureen Turim, Elizabeth Wilson.
