Synopsis
Kate Rowold is a professor of fashion design and a leading expert in the social and aesthetic history of Western fashion. Her chosen object of beauty, a corset from IU’s Sage Collection, reveals the tension between ever-shifting perceptions of beauty and the natural body, and the role of fashion as an instrument of cultural conformity and gatekeeping.
