“When the death of a phenomenon is proclaimed, this is not a reason to sound the alarm,” the authors of the collective monograph “The End of Fashion” argue in the introduction. In their opinion, the modern world, despite the end of history, art and man himself announced at the end of the last century, simply goes into a different state, and fashion, sensitive to any social transformation, embodies this process. This idea receives a comprehensive justification in the works of the largest theorists and historians of fashion: Hazel Clark, Adam Geci, Valerie Steele, Vicky Karaminas, Agnès Rocamor, Olga Weinstein, Hilary Radner, Sandy Black. .

The authors focus on the interaction of fashion with modern industries (art, digital technologies, economy), as well as with the most important problems of today (globalization, ecology, memorial policy). From chapter to chapter, the reader opens up a panorama of global cultural shifts, viewed through the prism of fashion as a universal and multifaceted semiotic system.
