Fashion, either haute couture or everyday, conjures up an idealized world where form, function, art, and artifice are skillfully balanced by mavens and madmen. But beyond the runway, fashion is a thriving force of cultural dissemination and social responsibility. In this course, students decide how the fashion industry, in all of its segments, and the fashion icon, current and historical, have made a lasting impact on the social and cultural beliefs and experiences of all consumers of fashion.
