One of the first books to examine the wide breadth of the African Diaspora and its influence on international fashion.
Tracing the local and global impact of Black Diasporic designers, Africa’s Fashion Diaspora is one of the first books to explore the diverse perspectives and significant roles that Black designers have contributed to the creation of international fashion culture. With a focus on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, this book features some of the best examples of innovative fashion throughout the period and contextualizes how diasporic designers' work can speak to contemporary issues, including decolonization, sustainability, and social equity. Diasporic designers cannot be monolithically defined—they come from varied cultures and their work speaks to their personal experiences, as well as wide ranges of influence. Hardcover, 248 pages.
