Berliner Chic : A Locational History of Berlin Fashion Paperback / softback
by Susan (York University, Canada) Ingram, Katrina (University of Victoria) Sark
Part of the Urban Chic series
Paperback / softback
Description
Since becoming the capital of reunited Germany, Berlin has had a dose of global money and international style added to its already impressive cultural veneer.
Once home to emperors and dictators, peddlers and spies, it is now a fashion showplace that attracts the young and hip.
Moving beyond descriptions of Berlin's fashion industry and its ready-to-wear clothing, Berliner Chic charts the turbulent stories of entrepreneurially-savvy manufacturers and cultural workers striving to establish their city as a fashion capital, and being repeatedly interrupted by politics, ideology, and war.
There are many stories to tell about Berlin's fashion industry and Berliner Chic tells them all with considerable expertise.
