Crash course in the history of fashion

What is trendy and modern? How should I dress to be seen, gain status, fit in – or stand out? These questions have occupied people for a long time. But how long? When did fashion begin? And what are the highlights of fashion history? Maria Carlgren gives a crash course in the history of fashion, through a journey from ostrich hats and harem pants to digital outfits and dresses made of bacteria.

Maria Carlgren is an art historian and until recently a senior lecturer in fashion studies at Lund University.
