The book examines the designers and performance artists at the turn of the twenty-first century whose work challenges established codes of what represents the fashionable body. These innovative people, the book argues, make their challenges through dynamic strategies of parody, humour and inversion. It explores the experimental work of modern designers such as Georgina Godley, Bernhard Willhelm, Rei Kawakubo and fashion designer, performance artist, and club figure Leigh Bowery. It also discusses the increased centrality of experimental fashion through the pop phenomenon, Lady Gaga. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Fashion and art. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85047379 650 0 $a Performance art. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85099809 650 0 $a Grotesque. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85057439 830 0 $a Dress cultures. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2013070910 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240117013242.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8FC6D634F11E11E79D0FC10F97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
