Since the turn of the 20th century, the film industry has played a key role in the promotion and representation of fashion. Likewise, fashion's mediated character through newsreels, television, newspapers, magazines, photography, and even paintings has facilitated the study of costume and dress history. Film scholars have dedicated efforts to the study of fashion and film, focusing mostly—but not exclusively—on matters of representation through costume design. Significant contributions from scholars like Jane Gaines (1990), Stella Bruzzi (2012), and Adrienne Munich (2003)—among others—have paved the way for an interdisciplinary approach to study fashion from a film and media perspective, and shaped a multitude of intercultural links between cinema and other media practices. Far from being an exhausted topic, however, the intersections between the fashion and film industries offer a vast potential for historical research that is increasingly becoming of interest to scholars around the globe.
This call for papers seeks to widen the existing research network, gathering articles from postgraduate students and early career researchers from different backgrounds with a dedicated interest in researching the intersections between fashion, film and media, inviting them to present historical case studies that provide an overview of the ways in which these areas of study overlap and intertwine. We will prioritize historical studies based on archival research as a principal methodology. Possible topics might include, but are not limited to:

• Product placement of fashion products in films.
• Representation of fashion in film.
• Fashion and media practices.
• Fashion magazines
• Fashion photography/photographers
• Fashion in film fan magazines
• Televised coverage of fashion shows
• Fashion advertising
• Histories of leaders and unsung heroes working in the fashion and film industries.
• Costume designers working off-screen in the creation of fashion.
