Rethinking Historiography and Ethnography
Modern slavery legislation and the limits of ethical fashion
The introduction of the Australian Modern Slavery Act in 2018 has important implications for the fashion sector and the supply chains that it furnishes. However, it also introduces an added layer of complexity to the already crowded space of ethical fashion information. This article investigates how fashion consumers navigate the increasingly complex landscape of ethical fashion against the backdrop of new legislation and alongside the moral impe…
Queering Fashion’s Pathologies in Killing Eve 1
The rise of fashion as a star attraction in recent television serials points to the complex critical languages of fashion in fleshing out character and in shifting generic expectations. It also discloses the relation between fashion as commodity and fashion as an extension of self in a way that signals the queer potential of fashion on several fronts. Here I examine how fashion in Killing Eve (Waller-Bridge, 2018–2022) drives a form of queer atta…
Surrealism
Fashion futures and critical fashion studies
The introduction maps the emerging field of critical fashion studies, whereby the ‘critical’ in this context marks the networks of influence and overlap between Cultural Studies and Fashion Studies
Women Modernists and the Legacies of Risk
This introductory essay for the Australian Feminist Studies special issue on Modernist Women and Risk examines the changing fortunes of risk for feminist aesthetic and political work. It considers how risk in the work of modernist women intellectuals, writers and artists prompts us to imagine what it might mean in the twenty-first century to ‘risk anything
Rethinking historiography and ethnography
Taking up Maurice Blanchot’s perceptive claim that “Surrealism remains always of our time”, the essay traces the importance of Surrealism for rethinking the methods of historiography (for Walter Benjamin) and ethnography (for James Clifford) in ways that allow us to appreciate the significance of Surrealism’s intellectual legacy. In his early essays on Surrealism and the monumental, unfinished work, The Arcades Project, Benjamin developed a new h…
Riot Grrrl Manifestos and Radical Vernacular Feminism
This essay argues that Riot Grrrl manifestos were instrumental in promulgating a form of radical feminism that demonstrates the enduring nature of feminist radicalism. While a great deal of important work has been written on the movement, little attention has been paid to how these manifestos developed a distinctive political language and culture. By foregrounding the volatility of feminine youth and the historical erasure of the girl subject as …
Valerie Solanas and the Limits of Speech
The reception of Valerie Solanas's SCUM Manifesto (1967) is over-determined by an event that has come to eclipse its critical legacy in the history of manifesto writing. Solanas's 1968 shooting of Andy Warhol, nearly a year after she wrote and began distributing her manifesto, projected her into the media limelight in a way that has complicated the SCUM Manifesto's reception as an avant-garde text. If Warhol believed he had been targeted merely a…
Sexing the Manifesto
According to Roger Conover, ‘Mina Loy's goal was simply to become the most original woman of her generation’ (1996: xiii). While the audacity of this ambition might account for Loy's association wi
