Sports meets Fashion: 1980s - 2017.
Sports meets Fashion: 1980 – 201,7, explores the relationship between sportswear and fashion during the 1980s to present day. It discusses how these two industries are closely related and more so, how high-performance materials such as Lycra and wool are mass produced and promoted for the high street. The key case studies examined and compared are Pineapple dancewear and Wool Mark Company, the display of sportswear through synthetic and natural. It also examines the role of sportswear in a social context, exploring the performance quality of the material, social engagement, and media reaction.
My dissertation aims to sit and bridge between the histories of sports culture, material culture and the business of fashion.
