Our Research

This ongoing research project, conducted by Master students following the Art History seminar “Belgian Fashion” at the Ghent University, aims to provide and share in-depth knowledge about the trajectories of Belgian fashion. Challenging the common focus on post-1980 narratives within Belgian fashion history, it gives rare insights into the layered meanings of dress and their entanglements in broader cultural histories from 1830 until 1980.

 

The platform seeks to be a comprehensive resource for fashion researchers, enthusiasts and industry professionals, while simultaneously showcasing the scholarly contributions of the students involved.
