In recent years, menswear has moved decisively center stage. Menswear Revolution investigates
the transformation of men's fashion through the lens of shifting masculinities, examining
how its increasing diversity has created new ways for men to explore and express their
identities. Harnessing sustained market growth and creative dynamism on the runway,
ground-breaking designers from Raf Simons and Hedi Slimane to Craig Green have revolutionized
the discipline with their bold re-imaginings of the male wardrobe. Analysing the role
of the media in shaping attitudes to men's fashion, Menswear Revolution studies how
competing narratives of masculinity are reflected in popular discourse. Taking us
from the mod and peacock revolutions of the 1960s to the new wave aesthetics of the
1980s, the book explores historical precedents for today's menswear scene - and looks
at the evolution of the `ideal' male body, from the muscular to the lean and boyish.
Combining interviews with fashion professionals with close analyses of garments and
advertising, Menswear Revolution provides an authoritative account of menswear design
today. Highlighting its relationship to changing concepts of gender, the book provides
a much-needed update to scholarship on masculinity, fashion and the body
