Insights on Fashion Journalism

This  collection surveys the key debates and issues that currently face  fashion journalism, going beyond traditional print media to consider its  multiple contexts and iterations in an ever-evolving post-digital media  environment. 

Bringing together a diverse range of contributors, Insights on Fashion Journalism  explores the characteristics, complexities, shifts and specificities of  the field. The book is organized into three sections, mapping fashion  journalism’s established and emerging practices and exploring its  parameters from mainstream to marginal. Section One focuses on the  complex relationships between those who practice fashion journalism, the  fashion industry and the media context in which they operate; Section  Two considers the ways in which fashion journalism responds to the  socio-political and cultural contexts in which it is created, as well as  the impact these contexts have on tone, content and style; and Section  Three investigates how language is employed in different media. 

Approaching  fashion journalism through a critically diverse lens, this collection  is an asset for academics and students in the fields of fashion studies,  journalism, communication, cultural studies and digital media.
