Abstract:
Thesis advisor: Michael Malec<br>My motivation for this research study comes from my own experience with and observations of body image issues among female students on the Boston College campus, as well as my observations of and research into the homogenization of beauty in the high-end fashion industry. Through various social institutions, namely high-end fashion media, our society supports an extremely narrow definition of beauty for women (read: White and thin/ultra-thin). There is an overwhelming lack of representation of women of color and women who do not fall in line with the thin body

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to compare Far Eastern influences on Western women's dress as represented in both a high fashion and mass fashion magazine between 1910 and 1925. Vogue was selected as the high fashion magazine and Ladies Home Journal as the mass fashion magazine. The questions that were addressed were: was there a difference in the influence of the Far East on high fashion styles and mass fashion styles, was there a time lapse between the appearance of fashion styles influenced by the Far East within Vogue and Ladies Home Journal, and was the trickle-down theory applicable when e

This qualitative study uses narrative inquiry (Connelly & Clandinin, 1988, 1990, 2001) and self-study to investigate ways to further understand and facilitate the integration of holistic philosophies of education with media literacy pedagogies. As founder and director of the Youth Media Literacy Project and a self-titled Imagitator (one who agitates imagination), I have spent over 10 years teaching media literacy in various high schools, universities, and community centres across North America. This study will focus on my own personal practical knowledge (Connelly & Clandinin, 1982) as a cult

Abstract:
In Europe, in the Middle Ages, ostrich feathers were used for the decoration of military headgear, as a representation of the high lineage of the possessor and his military virtues. They were imported from the coasts of West Africa, from Egypt and Syria into Italian and Spanish ports and from there exported to England and continental Europe. Venice, at the end of the fourteenth century, began to color feathers and soon the new fashion was spread throughout Europe. During the fifteenth century, even women began to use ostrich feathers on their hats or in their fans. When European ships reached

Abstract The Armani example illustrates the importance of the adaptive rational methods, which here helped to establish an iconic high-fashion corporation. Italian fashion designer, Giorgio Armani, adapted stylistically to fashion’s ‘new times’ in the 1970s‒80s by creating a new style that catered for career women. This stylistic adaptation is compared with that of another Italian fashion designer, Gianni Versace, who instead modernized haute couture fashion. Although the two designers exploited the same opportunity in different ways, they enjoyed similar success—both of them established iconi

Abstract:
The Picturegoer, published by Odhams Press, was the most popular British interwar film magazine. It was a pioneer in the use of rotogravure, a technique that brought high-quality color images to popular periodicals. The gravure process, in which both letterforms and photographs were fundamentally pictorial, challenged the text/image hierarchy, a radical shift reflected in the magazine’s layouts. Rotogravure had no definable matrix and images were smooth, continuous, and delicate; photographic portraits of stars were visually akin to cinematic close-ups.

Abstract The most popular book on the 1920s emphasizes enormous contradictions in the American scene. At the same time that individuals experienced great strides in their personal lives, the nation took one giant step backward into”normalcy. A country tired of sacrificing for war and weary of high-minded slogans about”making the world safe for democracy" reverted to old ways that emphasized personal comfort and national isolation. Nowhere is the contradiction more apparent than in accounts of women’s lives. The view of the 1920s as”roaring" gives only half the picture. It is true that contrace

In São Paulo/Brazil, between the years 1950 and 1980, porcelain sculptures representing courtesy scenes were fashionable in wealthy and middle-class homes. Several Brazilian factories started to produce such images and many others were imported, the most of them from Germany. These representations were inspired by the fêtes gallants, a rococo style genre from the 18th century. Factories like Meissen, Limoges and Capodimonte produced thousands of copies which circulated in Western Europe and the Russian Empire. During the 19th century, from French institutional policies, the fêtes galantes were
