Printing Fashion “Desire”
On Thursday 28th and Friday 29th March 2024, the MA in Fashion Studies at The New School Parsons Paris will launch the sixth edition of the Festival “Printing Fashion”. It creates a space for discussing the trajectory and evolution of printed media and the fashion of printed publication today, featuring key contributors in the field. Through debates, lectures and conversations, this year we will explore the concept of “Desire”. Our guests will survey this idea in connection with various aspects: the aspirational value of images and image-making, the commodification of bodies and the problem of representation in fashion media, the relation between sexuality, fashion and printed media, the increasing desire and fashionability of working in creative industries, the appeals of activism and political discourses in popular media and finally the increasing allure of fashion brand archives.
