Hausbacher, Eva: Fashion, Consumption and Everyday Culture in the Soviet Union between 1945 and 1985

Edited by Eva Hausbacher, Elena Huber and Julia Hargaßner. Six of the 14 contributions of this volume are presented in russian and three in german. Divided into the three sections "Socialist Fashion", "Fashion and Society", and "Fashion and the Arts", the contributions cover a wide range of different aspects, such as the history of fashion, the culture of consumption, aspects of economy, and vestimental codes in film and literature. At the centre of this volume thus lies the everyday culture with its implicit gender structures, and issues of transfer, in particular of Western fashion. Focusing on material culture thus the potential of fashion and fashion practices to transform the norms of Soviet society come to the fore. 230 Seiten mit 7 Farb- und 5 s/w-Tafeln, gebunden (Die Welt der Slaven.
