Edited by Rosie Findlay and Johannes Reponen, this collection brings together academics and media professionals to survey the key debates and issues that face contemporary fashion journalism, going beyond traditional print media to consider its multiple contexts and iterations in an ever-evolving media environment.

The book maps fashion journalism’s established and emerging practices and explores its parameters from mainstream to marginal. Section One focuses on the complex relationships between those who practice fashion journalism, the fashion industry and the media context in which they operate; Section Two considers the ways in which fashion journalism responds to the socio-political and cultural contexts in which it is created, as well as the impact these contexts have on tone, content and style, and Section Three investigates how language is employed in different media.
