15. FASHION THEORIES
an academic approach towards fashioning the body
Personally, I was shocked
with the fact that Europe
(or Western culture) has
such a strong voice in
comparison to the rest of
the world. We ignore
certain cultures and take
over their beauty ideals,
for example. Fashion
Theories has pushed me
into different directions,
even challenging
opinions I thought I was
quite sure of.
Katrien Fabry
alumna 2016 International Fashion Branding
at AMFI
That basically everything
around us in society, e.g.
gender, is socially
constructed. This was
quite a shocking
realisation but also very
exciting, because this
means anything can be
changed as well – in
order to attack power
inequalities and to
construct ideas that
create a more balanced
and equal environment.
