FASHION, STYLE & GLOBAL CULTURE CONFERENCE

MAY 16-18, 2019

URBN Center
3501 Market Street
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104

Fashion is signified and utilized across the globe. In this second 
annual Fashion, Style & Global Culture Conference we will focus on how 
fashion is portrayed in all types of popular and global culture. 
Presentations should examine the representations and expressions of 
fashion, apparel, garments, clothing, style, lifestyles, and textiles in 
various forms. Whether examining the latest innovations in fashion 
design on the runway, or how clothing is portrayed in the streets and 
through textiles, to the use of style allowing an individual to show 
their own particular taste to friends, this conference aims to push the 
envelope of scholarship to gain new understandings about the visual 
expression of fashion, apparel, garments, clothing, lifestyles, global 
culture and textiles through all forms. From the historical to the 
contemporary - the latest innovations to historical analysis, Fashion, 
Style & Global Culture Conference aims to be international in scope and 
represent a wide variety of disciplines, with a particular emphasis on 
perspectives and approaches from the humanities, social sciences, and 
the arts.

The symposium has an inclusive definition of the term “fashion.” While 
fashion is often understood to center on apparel choices, fashion can be 
recognized as the current style or way of behaving in any field. Thus, 
proposals are welcome from divergent fields such as fine arts, digital 
media, television, film, merchandising, fashion design, business, 
architecture, anthropology, cultural studies, history, interior design, 
graphic design, psychology, sociology, and women’s studies among others 
to examine interconnections and intersections between fashion and global 
culture.

This conference provides the opportunity for academics, researchers, 
graduate, and undergraduate students to exchange research findings, 
innovative teaching strategies, and creative designs addressing the 
interrelationships between fashion, style and our global culture.
