The study of the terminology, history, and cultures of clothing and fashion has gained ground in recent decades, proving to be one of the most stimulating fields of academic work, both multi- and transdisciplinary.

Clothing plays an important role as a ‘figurative duplication of the social order’ (Roche, 2007), reflecting social and political changes and cultural values, while also serving as a powerful tool for self-expression, community building, or challenging norms. This allows the different parties involved in the fashion creation process to create meaning and promote global connections through heritage and storytelling (Jones & Stallybrass, 2000; Welch, 2017; Matteucci, 2019).

Terminology, understood as a multidisciplinary science dedicated to the study of terms, concepts, and their relationships, considers objects, concepts, designations, and definitions to be fundamental to its practices (ISO 704, 2022).  This approach enables the study of terms in specialist fields, allowing observation of the evolution of object designations and their definitions over time, as well as the disappearance of terms designating obsolete concepts in favor of new terms responding to emerging realities. Thus, the dynamism of fashion trends has always accompanied–and continues to accompany–its terminology across past, present, and future.

Despite more recent efforts–such as the publication of the Portuguese version of the International Council of Museums (ICOM) Vocabulary of Basic Terms for the Cataloguing of Costumes (VBT) (Volpi & Duarte Martins, 2025) and the international colloquium ‘What’s costume got to do with terms? Terminology and clothing heritage in the Portuguese language’ (NOVA University of Lisbon, 7-8 April 2026)–the reference bibliography on clothing terminology in Portuguese, particularly dictionaries and encyclopedias, consists mainly of translations of works by foreign-language authors. This problem, recognized by fashion historians in their pioneering works (e.g. Boucher, 2012), is particularly acute in the case of Portuguese, as the scarcity of textual and visual sources is more noticeable and becomes more severe the further back in time one goes (Pinto, Garcia & Fragoso, 2023).

Issues such as Eurocentrism vs. multiculturalism, sexual and gender identity, the relationship between fashion and other cultural manifestations, fashion theories, material and clothing culture, the fashion system–from its design and manufacture to marketing and representation (Steele, 2005)–and the availability of specialized vocabulary with definitions geared towards the field of fashion, contributing to the creation of neologisms (Picken, 2013), emerge in term usage in clothing and fashion studies, as well as in selecting terms for indexing garments and accessories in museum collections. The visual characterization of clothing and footwear (whether through painting, sculpture, drawing, or other forms of visual representation) is particularly important in research on clothing history and heritage (Hollander, 1978; Palla, 1999; Malcolm-Davies & Mikhaila, 2006; Melchior & Svensson, 2014; Rublack & Hayward, 2015; Cantista & Delille, 2022), serving as a complement to definitions. These works identify cases of multiple terms designating the same garment, polysemy, spelling variants, and also highlight variation in term meanings, and changes in garment designations across historical periods (Passot, 2019).

In this sense, this thematic dossier aims to open discussion on the historical and linguistic issues underpinning clothing terminology in the Portuguese-speaking world, such as:

• The role of clothing terminology in constructing a language's lexicon and culture through literature and the arts;
• Clothing’s relationship with museum collections and the need for terminology to properly catalogue garments and accessories from different historical periods;
• The contributions of terminology and glossaries to the fashion industry and sustainable development goals, professional training, translation, and language teaching for specific purposes;
• The establishment and stabilization of fashion and clothing terminology to facilitate specialist knowledge transfer;
• Good practices for terminology management in clothing;
• Methodologies for validating terms and their equivalents within mediation strategies among specialists, translators, and linguists;
• The importance of images in defining garments;
• Neologisms and linguistic borrowings in fashion terminology, from past to present;
• The recognition of clothing heritage as an emerging field connecting academia and industry.

Dossier dObra[s]: an overview of the research and studies about fashion in Brazil

Organizers:

Dra. Valéria Faria dos Santos Tessari – Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR)
Dr. Henrique Grimaldi Figueredo – Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)
Dr. Felipe Goebel - Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)

Deadline for submission: September 30, 2026

Publication due to August, 2027

A long way has been charted since the first fashion studies faced resistance within the brazilian academic milieu. Recognition has been conquered among  research and investigative topics deemed worthy of being taken seriously in the broader field of the Humanities, expanding from the Arts and Letters to History and the Social Sciences.  Undergraduate and graduate programs have been created, along wih research groups, academic events and specific publications about the phenomenon of fashion, apperances and dress; in sum, about the dressed body and their cultural and social modalities. Amongst the brazilian publications, the longest running is the journal dObra[s], which in 2027 will turn twenty, reaching its fiftieth issue.

            To celebrate this trajectory we invite researchers with doctoral/PhD degrees to submit papers to the special dossier “dObra[s] 50: an overview of the research and studies about fashion in Brazil”. The actual proposal intends to compile in our journal a survey of research excellence that have made and continues to make the academic field about fashion, and to register the most relevant studies that build knowledge in fashion and related themes in and about Brazil, from a critical reflection perspective.

            We will welcome papers that costitute trajectories, assessments, and reviews about the fashion researches from Humanites and Social Sciences’ perspectives. Thus, studies about fashion and appareances in its multiple relations with History, Sociology, Anthropology, Philosophy, Communications Studies, memory, emotions, arts, press modalities, sustainability, sex and gender, sexualities, ethnicities, class, consumption, the production of the bodies and digital media. In this sense, we will appreciate:

- Historical, social, and cultural trajectories about the academic knowledge on, about and from fashion, produced in the recent decades in and about Brazil;

- Surveys about the construction of scientific knowledge on fashion that map advances in the field, the state-of-the-art, and research overviews;

- Critical reviews and expanded updates of fundamental studies previously published in earlier issues of dObra[s] that have become reference works for discussing new concepts, theories, or important field study methods.

This dossier is therefore commemorative and seeks to celebrate and acknowledge the work carried out by researchers over the past decades, which at the same time contributed to the consolidation of fashion studies in Brazil. Thus, this call for submissions is directed to senior scholars holding doctoral/PhD degree, with at least ten years of research production in their respective areas of specialization.

Dossier 49

Fashion and philosophy: between production and thought

Organizers:

Larissa Almada - Senac-SP
Guido Conrado - Senac-RJ

Deadline for submissions: July 31, 2026

Publication due to April or August 2027

Dressing, creating, developing, and marketing fashion are poetic acts of social production. We use the term poetic because both poetry and production share the same Greek root - poiesis - and with that, we aim to highlight that producing fashion cannot be reduced to the material making of clothes and accessories. Here, fashion is also understood as a mechanism for producing subjectivity, an expanded field for understanding the ways of living and organizing society.

Historically, many thinkers from the field of philosophy have reflected on the complexity of fashion as a phenomenon, considering its ethical, aesthetic, and political implications. For this reason, it is increasingly common for researchers in fashion to draw from philosophical authors to deepen their analyses of the practices of creation, production, and circulation of these wearable forms and artifacts.

This dossier seeks to provide an explicit space for dialogue and intersections between the fields of fashion and philosophy. It aims to share not only evidence of fashion’s contributions to philosophical reflection, through reviews or critical commentaries on thinkers who have addressed the subject, but also philosophy’s contributions to fashion studies, through fashion works that use philosophical concepts as productive material and through original philosophical reflections that find in fashion production and consumption a fertile ground for thought.

The main objective of this dossier is to offer a space for visibility and academic debate about the undisciplined relationships between fashion and philosophy. We wish to foster interdisciplinary or non-disciplinary dialogues, bringing together contributions that explore fashion as an object of philosophical reflection and that use philosophical thought as a tool for critical analysis of fashion. We also aim to promote intersections among aesthetic, ethical, and political perspectives, considering fashion within the contexts of its symbolic and material production.

In doing so, we intend not only to enrich the field of fashion studies but also to demonstrate its relevance and thematic strength for philosophy’s effort to understand contemporary social phenomena.

Proposed Structure

To encompass the diversity of approaches that the intersection between fashion and philosophy allows, this dossier welcomes works in different formats, open to the submission of:

Translations: We will accept unpublished translations into Portuguese of philosophical texts, classical or contemporary, that directly address themes such as fashion in productive and symbolic contexts.

Reviews: We welcome critical reviews of philosophical works, newly released or historically significant, that discuss fashion and its social and cultural implications. Philosophical Reflections: We encourage the submission of essays and original articles presenting philosophical reflections on fashion, its modes of production, and its regimes of thought.

Interdisciplinary Contributions: We also welcome articles and analyses from the field of fashion that use consistent philosophical frameworks to reflect on issues related to creation, production, circulation, consumption, and the symbolic and material representation of fashion and clothing.

interviews: We would also be pleased to receive interviews whose themes adhere to the subject of this dossier.

Dossier dObra[s] 48 

History of Fashion and Costume: Dresses, Images and Representations of the Past

 Organizers:

Paulo Debom – Senai Cetiqt / Escola de Artes Celso Lisboa
Camila Borges – Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro

Deadline for submissions: April 30, 2026

Publication due to December 2026 and/or April 2027

Dress has long been recognized as one of the most significant expressions of social life. Beyond its aesthetic dimension, it functions as both a historical document and a cultural practice, offering insights into power relations, economic transformations, shifts in social interactions, and the construction of collective and individual identities.

In recent decades, however, the history of fashion and dress has changed beyond its status as merely an object of study, consolidating itself as an autonomous field of research with its own categories, specialized theoretical debates, and extensive dialogue with other areas of knowledge. Investigating the culture of appearances, therefore, entails not only analyzing it as a reflection of a given period but also recognizing it as a space for knowledge production and critical interpretation of history and culture.

The dossier History of Fashion and Dress: Garments, Images, and Representations of the Past aims to gather articles based on research anchored in primary sources and historical documents, grounded in the methodological rigor characteristic of historical inquiry. It seeks to embrace the multiplicity of perspectives that shape historical writing, including:

• Cultural History: analysis of representations, practices, and circulation of symbols, including their manifestations and experiences in the realm of digital culture;
• Political History: relations between power, the state, and dress;
• Economic History: production, circulation, and trade of textiles, clothing, and adornments;
• Social History: modes of life, class distinctions, and collective experiences;
• History of Labor: trades, working conditions, and transformations in the garment industry;
• History of Women and Gender: dress as a practice of identity construction and negotiation;
• Material and Cultural History: study of objects, artifacts, and vestiges of dress in their social and historical dimensions;
• Visual and Cultural History: analysis of images, representations, and visual practices connected to the culture of appearances, including interfaces with audiovisual experiences and cinematic, television, and digital media;
• Oral History: individual and collective narratives expressing memories, sensory experiences, and living experiences of dress;
• History and History Education: use of fashion and dress as pedagogical resources to understand historical processes and foster innovative teaching practices;
• History and Social Sciences: interdisciplinary dialogues between fashion, anthropology, sociology, and political science.

By articulating different historiographical traditions and approaches, the dossier seeks to encourage dialogue among scholars across diverse fields, recognizing the history of fashion and dress as an inherently interdisciplinary domain. It opens space for approaches that traverse cultural, political, economic, and social histories, including insights from social sciences, philosophy, art, design, and communication. Nevertheless, all submissions must be grounded in historical research, ensuring the methodological rigor and analytical consistency that support robust academic reflection.
