Description: Through this course, we will traverse the evolution of fashion from the 16th century to present, analyzing fashion through books, artwork, and photographs. Furthermore, we will discuss the connection between fashion and major historical events, feminism, and society. In this course, students will learn about the changes in fashion through a historical lens, the societal issues that have surrounded fashion, and how fashion is used today as a method of representation and activism. Students will be expected to complete weekly discussion posts and in-class assignments. Students will apply what they learned in this course through a creative in-class presentation, highlighting fashion from a specific time period, designer, or culture.
