Where notions of tradition and of the primitive have remained embedded in so many fashion industry imaginations, this postcolonial fashion critique provides a much-needed perspective.

Each of the contributions develops and expands the work of key thinkers from W. E. B. Du Bois's visual sociology to Paul Gilroy's Black Atlantic. Fashion and Postcolonial Critique will prove seminal for scholars in textile and design history, in fashion communications, and also in cultural studies and sociology.
