Beginning with Alexander McQueen's infamous attempt to live stream his 2009 Plato's Atlantis collection on SHOWStudio, this book traces how digital and social media have disrupted social structures within the field of fashion, and transformed the way it is communicated and consumed. Analysing key case studies, from Chanel, Givenchy, Yeezy and Opening Cermony to interactive social media and 'see now buy now' campaigns from Burberry, Topshop and Tommy Hilfiger, The Fashion Show Goes Live analyses the mode and impact of fashion shows' transmission. Through the rise of experimental film, fashion shows tailored for media transmission and the use of live streaming and social media to render shows 'immediate' to consumers, fashion weeks - and fashion shows - have become not just trend barometers but material sites that demonstrate media's effects. Rebecca Halliday evaluates the performativity of consumer relations to such live streams and other mediatized content. In linking these relations back to fashion show footage, she demonstrates that although intended to communicate fashion to mass audiences, these practices also promote it as exclusive and aspirational. Despite democratized, international access to content, the shows themselves remain elite events; kindling new forms of consumer attention, interaction, immaterial labour and desire. Through the microcosm of the fashion show, The Fashion Show Goes Live asks broader socio-political questions about the effects of the fashion industry's mediatization, challenging the notion that new technology has fostered inclusivity

In the early 20th century, the desire to see clothing in motion flourished on both sides of the Atlantic: models tangoed, slithered, swaggered, and undulated before customers in couture houses and department stores. The Mechanical Smile traces the history of the earliest fashion shows in France and the United States from their origins in the 1880s to 1929, situating them in the context of modernism and the rationalization of the body. Fashion shows came into being concurrently with film, and this book explores the connections between fashion and early cinema, which arguably functioned as what Walter Benjamin called "new velocities"--Forces that altered the rhythms of modern life. Using significant new archival evidence, The Mechanical Smile shows how so-called "mannequin parades" employed the visual language of modernism to translate business and management methods into visual seduction. Caroline Evans, a leading fashion historian, argues for an expanded definition of modernism as both gestural and performative, drawing on literary and performance theory rather than relying on art and design history. The fashion show, Evans posits, is a singular nodal point where the disparate histories of commerce, modernism, gender, and the body converge.

Premier ouvrage entièrement consacré au défilé de mode, Showtime retrace l'histoire du défilé de la fin du XIXe siècle à nos jours à travers analyses, récits et témoignages abondamment illustrés. Comment le défilé fait-il image ? Représentations littéraires, iconographie des " marcheuses professionnelles " devenues top models, ou évolution du métier de photographe, l'image de défilé révèle progressivement ses enjeux stratégiques et économiques. A travers les voix croisées de témoins et acteurs du monde de la mode, d'archéologues du domaine contemporain, d'historiens et de chercheurs, une chronologie se dessine, rythmée par une iconographie qui en marque les temps forts. Enfin, l'étude de sujets inhérents ou annexes au défilé, comme le mannequin, le cinéma, le son, le carton d'invitation et la photographie, complète ce panorama. Historiens et chercheurs disposent désormais du recul nécessaire pour faire du défilé un sujet à part entière. Showtime leur ouvre le chemin.

"Ex limbo [by the Belgian art collective Rotor] is an in-depth investigation of the scenographic elements that have been realized for the fashion show sets designed by [and for] Prada and Rem Koolhaas / OMA [for] over more than a decade. A curiosity for the signs of use left behind on materials, an interest in the conservation criteria used within the storage areas, as well as fascination with structures and objects that have been dissassembled and reorganized constitute the germ of the exhibition project."--P. [3].
