Book Synopsis
The catalogue A Meeting of Cultures: Fashions of North Africa is a pathbreaking work focused specifically on contemporary fashion designers and influencers in Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya and Egypt. This work broadens the scope of scholarship on the fashion industry, which to date has focused primarily on American and European designers. To illuminate the myriad ways North Africans dress, this catalogue showcases the works of contemporary fashion designers along with photography by fashion photographers, journalists, and social media influencers. The catalogue is organized around five themes which bring together the work of fashion practitioners from different countries and draw out the diverse approaches to retaining cultural distinctiveness while adapting to contemporary concerns ranging from sustainability to gender identity.
