"A significant contribution to the production of knowledge by bringing together ideas from two relatively new, specialized fields: Fashion Studies and Food Studies." -- From the Foreword by Valerie Steele "[A] timely and innovative volume that provides in-depth reflections, historical background ... The originality of the essays in this volume is in putting together two important aspects of contemporary material life that contribute to the construction of individual and collective identities as well as personal preferences." -- From the Foreword by Fabio Parasecoli "Bringing together scholars and curators of fashion, this accomplished volume examines fashion's long standing cultural and historical relationship with food. It will make you think about what you eat and what you wear and by the time you finish reading this book, you'll be craving for more." -- Vicki Karaminas, Professor of Fashion, and co-author of Gastrofashion from Haute Cuisine to Haute Couture "Adventurous, inspiring and challenging ... An absolute must-have for food and fashion scholars and for lovers of both." -- Kyla Wazana Tompkins, Pomona College, USA "A perfect overview of the different parameters of fashion and food: every culture around the globe uses fashion and food to integrate people and to express ideas about gods, behavior, hierarchy, political systems ... Based on excellent research, very well written and super beautiful." -- Martin Hablesreiter, Honey & Bunny Vienna, Austria, "A significant contribution to the production of knowledge by bringing together ideas from two relatively new, specialized fields: Fashion Studies and Food Studies." -- From the Foreword by Valerie Steele "[A] timely and innovative volume that provides in-depth reflections, historical background ...

Food & Fashion is a deep dive into common and unexpected synergies between the two disciplines ." --Charmaine Mok, South China Morning Post "With beautiful illustrations throughout , Food & Fashion reveals the breadth of conversations that arise when considering these industries in tandem. The book raises interesting ideas about the cultural markers, with roots in commercialism and artistic expression, provoking readers to think about food and fashion from new perspectives." --Fiona Ibbetson, Selvedge "Bringing together scholars and curators of fashion, this accomplished volume examines fashion's long standing cultural and historical relationship with food.
