Description

Animal Fashions explores the intersections of fashion, colonial history, and gender through the lens of animal materials and collecting practices. This scholarly work from Palgrave Macmillan examines how animals and their products became central to fashion industries during the colonial era, revealing the gendered labour and power dynamics embedded in global supply chains. The book investigates the cultural meanings of animal-derived textiles and accessories, tracing how colonial collecting shaped aesthetic values and consumption patterns. By bringing together fashion studies, cultural history, and postcolonial critique, this volume demonstrates how fashion systems perpetuated colonial hierarchies and naturalised gendered divisions of labour. Essential reading for scholars of fashion history, anthropology, and colonial studies seeking to understand how animals and animal materials were instrumentalised in the construction of modern fashion.

Key Features

Animal Fashions addresses colonial histories and their relationship to fashion systems, cultural collecting practices, and global trade networks.

Palgrave Studies in Fashion and the Body series situates this work within established scholarly discourse on material culture and embodied practices.

The book examines gendered labour in animal-based fashion industries, connecting personal adornment to broader structures of colonial exploitation.

Published by Palgrave Macmillan, a leading academic publisher specialising in rigorous interdisciplinary scholarship in humanities and social sciences.

This volume combines anthropological perspectives with fashion theory to reveal how colonial collecting shaped modern aesthetic values and consumption.
