Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Clothing and fashion are forms of visual and material culture that play an important role in social and cultural life. What we wear shapes our bodies and shapes the ways we look at other people’s bodies. We perform our identities via fashion, clothing and our bodies. Fashion is also a major economic force, driven by multinational interests. Young people can endlessly discuss clothing as markers of inclusion or exclusion, which shows that fashion is a powerful means of communication and therefore a very valuable topic in any foreign language classroom. The material we discuss will range from picture books, such as Froggy Gets Dressed to theoretical discussions of fashion as an art form.
Assessment and permitted materials
