Aims & Scope

Critical Studies in Men’s Fashion examines the multi-faceted dimensions 
of men’s appearance. It uses the holistic definition of dress as a means 
of examining the tangible and intangible aspects of creating and 
maintaining appearance. This journal is the first to exclusively focus 
on men’s dress and topics of gender, identity, sexuality, culture, 
marketing and business will be discussed. Men’s dress and fashion have 
been side-lined in scholarship, and this journal provides a dedicated 
space for the discussion, analysis, and theoretical development of men’s 
appearance from multiple disciplines. All articles are double-blind 
peer-reviewed in order to maintain the highest standards of scholastic 
integrity. Theoretical and empirical scholarship in the form of original 
articles, manuscripts, research reports, pedagogy, and media reviews are 
welcome.

Submissions

Contributions are welcome from any discipline, including but not limited 
to fashion studies, anthropology, art, art history, business, consumer 
studies, cultural studies, economics, gender studies, humanities, 
literature, marketing, psychology, queer studies, religion, sociology, 
and textiles. Diverse viewpoints and methods are encouraged.

The journal will accept articles that are theoretical or empirical, from 
any discipline or theoretical foundation. This is done in order to gain 
a broad understanding of men and fashion and provide a platform that is 
diverse and accepting of disparate viewpoints. In addition, the journal 
will also accept media reviews.
