“Au fil de l'or” L'art de se vêtir de l'orient au soleil-levantau musée du quai Branly – Jacques Chirac, Parisdu 11 février au 6 juillet 2025Entretien avec Magali An Berthon, professeure assistante en Fashion Studies, American University of Paris et membre associée, Centre for Textile Research, Université de Copenhague (Danemark), et co-commissaires de l'exposition,par Anne-Frédérique Fer, à Paris, le 10 février 2025, durée 17'54,© FranceFineArt.https://francefineart.com/2025/02/14/3593_au-fil-de-l-or_musee-du-quai-branly-jacques-chirac/Communiqué de presseCommissariat :Hana Al Banna – Chidiac, ancienne responsable de l'unité patrimoniale Afrique du Nord et Proche-Orient, musée du quai Branly – Jacques Chirac (Paris)Magali An Berthon, professeure assistante en Fashion Studies, American University of Paris et membre associée, Centre for Textile Research, Université de Copenhague (Danemark)L'exposition est organisée par le musée du quai Branly – Jacques Chirac avec la précieuse collaboration de la créatrice de mode chinoise Guo Pei.Du Maghreb au Japon, en passant par les pays du Moyen-Orient, l'Inde et la Chine, l'exposition retrace l'histoire millénaire de l'or dans les arts textiles. Une histoire fascinante où se marient création artistique, savoir-faire traditionnels et inventions techniques. Dès le cinquième millénaire avant notre ère, l'or agrémente les premières étoffes de luxe dédiées aux hommes de pouvoir. Au cours des siècles suivants, des tisserands et artisans chevronnés – romains, byzantins, chinois, perses puis musulmans – déploient les techniques les plus ingénieuses pour réaliser de véritables tissus d'art où les fibres de soie ou de lin s'entrelacent aux lames et filés d'or. Des premiers ornements cousus sur les vêtements des défunts aux robes flamboyantes de la créatrice de mode chinoise Guo Pei, des caftans brochés d'or du Maghreb et d'Orient et des soieries des mondes indien et indonésien aux kimonos scintillants de l'ère Edo, l'exposition propose une traversée au fil de l'or en deux sections historiques et techniques et cinq sections correspondant à cinq grandes aires géographiques et culturelles.Costumes de lumière des pays du soleil couchantLes costumes présentés dans cette première section géographique – manteau (caftan), tunique, pantalon, gilet – témoignent du métissage culturel qui marque les pays du Maghreb (Maroc, Algérie, Tunisie). Le goût du faste caractérise très tôt cette région. Au 10e siècle, la ville de Mahdia, en Tunisie, est réputée pour ses étoffes tissées d'or et de soie. Deux siècles plus tard, sous la dynastie des Almohades, des soieries brochées d'or sont réalisées dans les ateliers de Marrakech, au Maroc mais aussi à Malaga et à Alméria en Andalousie. Après la chute de Grenade en 1492, les pays d'Afrique du Nord accueillent de nombreux exilés andalous, juifs et musulmans, qui apportent de nouvelles modes vestimentaires mais aussi de nouvelles techniques de tissage et de broderie aux fils d'or. À partir du 16e siècle, l'expansion de l'Empire ottoman marque les costumes citadins de cette région qui s'inspirent de modèles venus de Turquie.[...] Hébergé par Acast.

Jay Jaxon was the first African-American haute couturier, having worked in the prestigious luxury houses of Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, and Jean-Louis Scherrer in the 1960s and 70s. Rachel Fenderson uncovered Jaxon's work while researching as a student in Parsons Paris' Fashion Studies program. She has since organized exhibitions at the Queens Public Library and Queens Historical Society about Jaxon's work. In this episode of Transition of Style, we celebrate LGBT History Month in the United States by discussing Jay Jaxon. Let's get a sneak peek at what Jay Jaxon's life in Paris would have been like – not only as an American in Paris, but an African-American non-heterosexual man in Paris. Where was he during the 1973 Battle of Versailles Fashion Show, the iconic fashion spectacle that put American and French designers and models on the map? What would life have been like for a 20- or 30-something year-old non-straight man in Paris? Listen to the episode to find out.

Elan Rodman is a fashion professional with a flair for the past. He founded the @thelostandfoundmuseum on Instagram, a space that connects sportswear history with design and cultural histories. While a graduate student at Parsons School of Design in their M.A Fashion Studies program, he explored the possibilities of connecting fashion history with art and theory as a way to understand the effects fashion has on society. His interest in vintage clothing became a focal point, as his thesis focused on the history of taboo, seen through vintage t-shirt graphics and phraseology. Today, he is the Footwear & Packaging Specialist for the Reebok Archive in Boston, Massachusetts, where he combines his passion for footwear fashion history to help maintain Reebok's rich legacy in sporting culture. In this episode, Elan and I talk about his genuine and unconventional path to building a career in fashion, how he got started as a vintage dealer and the importance of pushing through rocky terrain to pursue your dreams. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ongoingness/support

About Today's Show Welcome to episode 8, Season 5 of #SenecaProud Podcast! Question: What do you do with the clothes you no longer wear? If you're like me, you try to donate them when you can, but what if they're tattered? For me, I probably throw them into the garbage, which of course goes straight to the landfill. Turns out, textile waste is a big problem, both globally, and in Canada as well. Here are some statistics, courtesy of Earth.org: 92 Million Tonnes of Textiles Waste is Produced Every Year - which is the equivalent of one garbage truck full of clothes ending up in a landfill site every second. The number of times a garment is worn is now between 7 to 10 times before it is discarded. To produce 1 kg of cotton requires 20,000 litres of water, and producing a single t-shirt requires 2,700 litres of water. Clearly this is a serious problem, and our guest in today's show is not only a Seneca Professor, she is also one of Canada's formost experts on the topic, Dr. Sabine Weber. In this show we talk about her Dumpster Study, funded by Seneca's Applied Research Fund. And.... In this episode we also learn: How serious the problem is in Canada The opportunity for entrepreneurs to solve the supply chain challenges, so that garmets can be recycled more easily What we can do to help reduce our textile waste So much more! About our Guest, Dr. Sabine Weber Sabine Weber has been teaching at Seneca Polytechnic since 2016, in the school of fashion, where she teaches in all three fashion programs: Fashion Business & Fashion Business Management, Fashion Arts and Fashion Studies. Prior to coming to Canada, Sabine began her career in Germany and later in Switzerland, where as a fasion buyer she oversaw a purchasing budget of over $250 million per year. Currently, Sabine's research topics are sustainable fashion, textile waste, and social innovation. Sabine's main interest is how social innovation can help to transition the fashion industry towards sustainability. Her particular focus is textile waste and a circular fashion system. And along with her students, she completed what became known as the Dumpster Dive study, which was funded by Seneca's Applied Research Fund. We touch on that study in our conversation. Sabine hold both a Master's Degree, and a PhD from the University of Waterloo. This description of Sabine only scratches the surface of Sabine's accomplishments in the area of textile waste and sustainable fashion. Suffice it to say, Sabine is one of, if not number one, expert on this topic, in Canada. And she teaches right here at Seneca! Pretty cool. Important Links Read more on the Dumpster Dive Studey here.

"We made it, we're in the Ottawa Citizen!" Dr. Ben Barry is Dean of Fashion at Parsons School of Design in New York. When he was fourteen, Ben founded a modelling agency in his hometown of Ottawa, Canada. Realizing there was an untapped market for models of all sizes, Ben made a name for himself as an agent for models of all sizes. Ben's agency initially supplied models for the local newspaper, which quickly became his biggest champion. Then TEEN PEOPLE gave him a call. In March 2001, they celebrated Ben on their annual list of "20 Teens Who Will Change the World". This caught the attention of Oprah Winfrey, who featured the 18-year-old on her talk show. As an adult, Ben shifted into a career in fashion education. He has a BA from the University of Toronto, and degrees from Cambridge University, where his PhD research demonstrated a business case for size diversity in fashion and beauty advertising. Over the past few years, Ben has worked at Ryerson University in Toronto, where he was Chair of Fashion, and Founding Director of the Centre for Fashion Diversity and Social Change. He remains an Associate Professor of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, in the School of Fashion at Ryerson. Ben spoke with me in the spring of 2021, from his country home west of Kingston, Ontario. Podcast notes: Ben is the co-founder and co-editor of Fashion Studies, an open access, academic journal, which you can find here: www.fashionstudies.ca. Find me online: www.annasoper.ca. This is the last episode of season two, and if you haven't heard my other interviews, please do!

The 34th episode was recorded remotely during my presentation at the Royal Academy of Copenhagen, when I was invited to give a guest lecture on decolonizing fashion education for Else Skjold's new MA program in sustainable fashion in October 2020. You will hear most of my presentation, but it ends a little abruptly with the question, “where do we go from here?” which I posed to the students during the discussion period, which is not included in this recording. Of course, this is an enduring question that I have been working on in my research, teaching, and publications. So, let's consider this just the beginning of an on-going conversation of how to make fashion education more just, how to bridge decoloniality and sustainability, and how to reform the fashion industry.

In this episode, writer Vanessa Rosales talks to Dr. Francesca Granata about the recent publication of her revolutionary book "Fashion Criticism: An Anthology", the first compilation that gathers a diverse array of critical writings on fashion and style. They talk about her work in the field of Fashion Studies, and about the sense of "hybrid imagination" - as Roasales calls it - that the knowledge produced in this territory can entail and require. They talk about Granata's ongoing interest in understanding the process of legitimization for fashion criticism, the ways it has shifted historically and some of the particular manners in which media and context have shaped it. They discuss contemporary and historical tensions, the inevitable relation to neoliberalism, publicity, what it takes to be a fashion critic and what his or her role may be today. They briefly reflect on the topic in a Latin American context as well.

Death by outfit isn't something featured in the game of Clue but it could be. Our ancestors lured to the new bright colors of the nineteenth century wore garments poisoned with arsenic and mercury, perhaps hurrying along their deaths. Not that you're likely to see that as a cause on a death certificate. These garments continue to be harmful to curators today with long lasting toxins. You've probably never thought about fashion history as a dangerous profession, but this episode will change your mind. My guest is a fashion historian who studies toxic fashion and now clothing adaptations worn by a criminal element. Both topics are fascinating glimpses into what our ancestors wore, why they wore them, and the effects of doing so.

Episode 25: We went to the Critical Fashion Studies conference at the University of Melbourne last week. Nadya gave the presentation “Cut, Arrange, Paste: Stolen, Ong Shunmugam and the Singapore Fashion Identity” and Dani “Re-adoptions of the Aesthetic of Use in Contemporary Fashion”. We speak about our panels, our favourite papers, and our experience in general at the conference.
The 5th episode was recorded at the University of Southern Denmark, where I currently teach Fashion Studies, in the Department of Design and Communications. I was invited by Vinnie Hansen, the Chairwoman of HAU – the Network Association for Design Studies – to present a talk on fashion and sustainability, to both the association members – the future generation of professionals in Design Studies in Denmark – and the general public, at their annual General Assembly Meeting in 2019. I focused my presentation on where we are in the current sustainability discourse, where the main challenges lie now, and what we can all do as educators, designer, entrepreneurs, consumers, researchers, and innovators. I argue that in light of the current climate crisis, sustainability is no longer enough, that we need to envision new ways to move beyond sustainability towards re-generation, and that we need to connect the sustainability research, development, and discourse with creativity across multi-disciplinary fields of research, inquiry, think tanks, and the future directions in design. I believe that creativity is the key ingredient, that is unfortunately still under-valued and under-funded, in generating new ideas and new directions for making our lives, work, and our environments more sustainable. I leave the audience with some points of inspiration on where we should re-direct our focus, and what we can all do, individually and collectively, to generate change. I mention Greta Thunberg, who, at the time of this presentation, was organizing climate strikes across Canada, and specifically in Edmonton, Alberta, the former oil capital of Canada, and also in Vancouver, British Columbia, where currently Indigenous communities and climate activists are protesting against the Government of Canada for allowing oil corporations to build a pipeline that stretches from the Alberta tar-sand fields, where oil is still extracted at a high cost to the environment, to the Pacific Ocean, through a province that experiences uncontrollable wild fires each summer. The fact that Greta Thunberg managed to bring out so many young people both in Alberta and BC to strike is very inspiring. But it is only the first step in the right direction. The many, new, next steps still need to be envisioned, initiated, and sustained. My presentation was followed by a panel discussion with several Danish fashion professionals and fashion educators on the challenges of fashion sustainability both in education and in the industry. The panel was in Danish, so it is not recorded here, but I provided some guiding questions for the panelists to discuss, that I list at the end of my presentation.
This week's guest is Eugenia Paulicelli, professor of Italian, comparative literature, and women's and gender studies at The Graduate Center, CUNY and Queens College. She is the founder and coordinator of the Fashion Studies concentration within the M.A. Program in Liberal Studies at The Graduate Center. She is editor, co-editor, and author of several books and publications on the history and theory of fashion, cinema, and literature. She is also the founder of the IC-CUNY Film Festival that just held its second season in 2019, dedicated to the crafts of cinema and costume design. In this podcast, she discusses the history of fashion, her scholarly study of it, and how technology is affecting the industry.
The 4th episode was also recorded in Toronto, at the sixth annual Canadian Fashion Symposium, that I organize once a year, hosted by the School of Fashion at Ryerson University. First, you will hear a panel recorded at the Symposium, organized by several grad students from the Ryerson Fashion MA program, entitled, “Fashioning Inclusivity: Frontiers of Fashion Diversity” (with Johnathan Clancy, Ryan Chantree, and Jason Cyrus). A few weeks after their panel, we recorded an interview with these very inspiring young people about the state of Fashion Studies in Canada today, and what we can all learn from each other. I asked them to briefly introduce themselves and their research areas, and why they think it's important. I also asked them some tough questions about their experiences in Fashion Studies, and the challenges they face now, and in their future.

The third episode was recorded in Toronto, Canada, in September 2019, where I organized the sixth annual Canadian Fashion Symposium. Every year, I find a hosting institution (usually a museum that has a fashion or a textile collection, or a fashion school or university in Canada – and I try to alternate the Eastern and Western parts of the country). Collaboratively, I organize the annual Symposium that is meant to bring together fashion scholars, curators, practitioners, and fashion professionals to build a community, present new research, organize workshops and discussion panels, network, and collaborate on academic and creative projects to promote Fashion Studies across Canada. This year, the Fashion Symposium was hosted by the School of Fashion at Ryerson University in Toronto, and I have to thank Sandra Tullio-Pow for being such an amazing collaborator, host, and organizer! My goal for this year’s Symposium was to document some of the work conducted at the Centre for Fashion Diversity & Social Change (FDSC), co-founded by Ben Barry and Alison Matthews David. I wanted to interview some of the members this Centre and ask them about their current work. In this episode, you will hear a brief interview with Romana Mirza, who will introduce the Centre, her own projects, as well as the work of her colleagues. Then, you will hear a panel recorded at the Symposium, where Romana Mirza, Sandra Tullio-Pow, Presley Mills, and Henry Navarro Delgado talk about their various projects conducted at the Centre. And at the end of the Symposium, I also had a chance to briefly interview Jaclyn Marcus and Alison Matthews David about the open-access, academic journal, Fashion Studies, published annually by Ryerson University’s Centre for Fashion Diversity and Social Change, and co-founded by Alison Matthews David and Ben Barry. This online journal is available to all at no cost to readers or authors, and they are currently looking for submissions for their third issue.

En este episodio, la escritora Vanessa Rosales hace una breve introducción de una disciplina académica en desarrollo desde los años 80, llamada Fashion Studies, o Estudios de Moda y de la cual tiene una maestría en Parsons The New School for Design. En el episodio cuenta rápidamente cómo se formó la disciplina, en qué consiste, cuáles son algunos de sus autores y temas fundamentales; cómo el campo ha intervenido en su propia escritura, de qué se trató su tesis y un poco más. Todo es un pequeño vistazo a uno de los primeros cursos en la disciplina que se dictarán en Colombia, en la Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano, en agosto. Los Estudios de Moda son otro componente del híbrido que caracteriza al trabajo de la escritora.

Fashion world icon Nena Ivon joins us in the Booth to talk about her astounding career, her varied interests in all things cultural, and so much more! A legend in Chicago, Nena Ivon was the fashion and special events director at Saks Fifth Avenue from 1956 to 2009, where among other things, she produced all of the fashion shows, handled publicity, styled the windows and dressed the mannequins. She has worked with hundreds of the leading fashion designers and style icons of the 20th and 21st centuries, including many great models. Nena talked about the quality one-on-one time she got to spend with these designers, picking them up at the airport when they came to town for Saks events. She is currently a member of the executive board of the Costume Council of the Chicago History Museum, and a faculty member in Fashion Studies at Columbia College Chicago (where the Nena Ivon Collection is archived). She is also the author of a marvelous blog called Nena's Notes. We love the way she organized the blog. As you will learn in more detail on the episode, each day of the week has a different theme to reflect things she's passionate about. Monday is for profiles of people, starting with a Proust-like questionnaire, then an interview. A favorite topic for her is how people reinvent themselves when they leave one career, such as the models she worked with. Tuesday is for book reviews. Wednesday is musings, which can go in a number of different directions. Thursday is for collections, not just of fashion, but also other beautiful objects. Friday is for Fashion. Spotlights on designers she's worked with or the current season. Check it out. There is something for everyone. We are excited that she is working on a podcast and a book! Amazingly enough, Nena has a direct connection to the real Booth One and the impetus for our show. Back in the day at Saks, they would hold two fashion shows a week at The Pump Room at lunch time. Then there were conversations in Booth One with stars, Broadway tryout cast members, authors, and local personalities. Nena led a number of these interviews. Oh, how we wish those were recorded! Speaking of Booth One, she is a huge fan of theatre, ballet, and opera. Her favorite medium is musical theatre! Learn who Nena's favorite designers are, including the great Bob Mackie, who she says is a brilliant designer of clothes as well as costumes. Gary tells Nena that he has never missed an episode of Project Runway. Her favorite designer to come out of that show is Christian Seriano and she tells us why. Check out this glam photo of Nena with Christian LaCroix. The photographer, Robert Carl, said of the picture, "“I love this shot of two sophisticates, Nena Ivon and Christian Lacroix. It reminds me of Grant Wood’s “American Gothic,” even though she is the high priestess of Chicago fashion and he is the darling of Paris.” We talk about the new Library of Congress National Screening Room, which has films from 1890-1999. They are being digitized so we can all check them out. The goal is to have their vast collection reach the largest possible audience. Nena talks about Guo Pei's collection at Paris fashion week. Wow. Check out her stunning and show-stopping designs on her website. Kiss of Death: Dorcas B. Reilley As you know, we end every episode with a celebration of a life. Our New York correspondent and good friend, Robbie Young, suggested Dorcas B. Reilley, the inventor of green bean casserole. She was a supervisor in Campbell's Soup test kitchen and led the group to come up with a great dish that could be made with things already in most people's pantries. Made with Campbell's Cream of Mushroom soup, it offered "convenience with a touch of glamour." Here is the original recipe, still being made today. It is estimated that it will be served in 20 million homes this coming Thanksgiving. Our producer's grandmother added some Velveeta, which made it even better.
Katie Wilkes sits down with Dr. Downing Peters, Assistant Professor of Fashion Studies at Columbia College Chicago. The two discuss Dr. Downing Peters' work, specifically her recent PhD research titled Stoutwear and the Discourses of Disorder: Constructing the Fat, Female Body in American Fashion in the Age of Standardization, 1915-1930.
Katie Wilkes sits down with Dr. Francesca Granata, Program Director of Fashion Studies at The New School Parsons, to discuss her book Experimental Fashion, Performance Art, Carnival and the Grotesque Body, as well as the role and limitations of the grotesque body in fashion.

Frédéric Godart et Aurélia GualdoPourquoi donc étudier la mode ?Malgré les apparences, le sujet est très sérieux. D’un point de vue économique, l’industrie de la mode aurait représenté environ 2000 milliards d’euros à l’échelle mondiale en 2016. D’un point de vue environnemental, on sait que la mode fait désormais partie des secteurs les plus polluants au monde. Comment fonctionne la mode ? Quels sont les enjeux liés au secteur de la mode aujourd'hui ? Une mode éthique et "durable" est-elle possible ? Nos invités nous font découvrir ce champ de recherche en pleine émergence que l'on nomme "Fashion studies". Frédéric Godart est titulaire d'un doctorat en sociologie (Columbia University) et actuellement chercheur en théorie des organisations à l’Insead. Il est également l'auteur de “Sociologie de la mode” (2010, réédité en 2016) aux éditions La DécouverteAurélia Gualdo est doctorante en anthropologie à l’Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales au sein de l’Institut Interdisciplinaire d’Anthropologie du Contemporain. Elle est aussi engagée au sein de l’association Universal Love et du mouvement Fashion Revolution, qui militent pour une mode plus responsable et plus durable.
