Young Danes Dressing the Part: A Heedless or Mindfull Use Phase?

Publications: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingArticle in proceedingsResearchpeer-review

Abstract

This paper provides an analytical contribution to the research field of sustainable fashion consumption by outlining a material-semiotic approach. This material-semiotic approach is contrasted with the presiding behavioral approaches through two analytical moves: 1. from individual choice to everyday practices, and 2. from implications for design to practice-oriented design. The two analytical moves are illustrated through two teaching-based research collaborations, which both sought to
understand better how design research might come to influence the development of more sustainable practices of dressing the part over space and time.
