Reviews

“This edited volume explores the intersection of fashion and the feeling body. ... The volume is organized thematically across eighteen chapters in four sections. ... this volume ultimately registers a set of political and affective concerns that can orient and guide strands of contemporary fashion scholarship, research, and practice, and at the same time bring additional complexity and nuance to understanding the significance of the body in fashion.” (Todd Robinson, Fashion Theory, February 1, 2024) “Fashion and Feeling crests a wave of affect-related fashion studies which has gathered with increasing urgency in recent years; in doing so it serves admirably as both theoretical primer and instructive exhibition of the field’s potential avenues of application. … this collection succeeds in inspiring more than it forecloses.” (Alec Holt, Journal of Design History, December 4, 2023)
