Fashion as Performance edit
Summary of the case study and link edit
BA Fashion Design Students and their performances / presentations are the focus of this case study that involves public streaming, exams, social media content. The event "Doing Fashion" was based on the premise that fashion becomes legible as a performative process that stages clothes on bodies in a specific space. Only through various staging strategies do clothes become fashion and signs within our culture and our communication. For fashion, performativity consists in the incessant process of constructing and deconstructing meanings. In this way, fashion represents representation itself, it only refers to the indwelling character of all signs without providing a clear referent.
