About this product
Product Information
This is the first in-depth, book-length study on fashion and Italian cinema from the silent film to the present. Italian cinema launched Italian fashion to the world. The book is the story of this launch. The creation of an Italian style and fashion as they are perceived today, especially by foreigners, was a product of the post World War II years. Before then, Parisian fashion had dominated Europe and the world. Just as fashion was part of Parisian and French national identity, the book explores the process of shaping and inventing an Italian style and fashion that ran parallel to, and at times took the lead in, the creation of an Italian national identity. In bringing to the fore these intersections, as well as emphasizing the importance of craft in cinema, fashion and costume design, the book aims to offer new visions of films by directors such as Nino Oxilia, Mario Camerini, Alessandro Blasetti, Federico Fellini, Michelangelo Antonioni, Luchino Visconti and Paolo Sorrentino, of film stars such as Lyda Borelli, Francesca Bertini, Pina Menichelli, Lucia Bos , Monica Vitti, Marcello Mastroianni, Toni Servillo and others, and the costume archives and designers who have been central to the development of Made in Italy and Italian style.

This text is a must to understand their complex interrelation and influence on the construction of Italian national and cultural identity from the early 20th century to our 21st century." -La Voce di New York "An important initial assessment of the intertwined destinies of fashion and film in Italy from the start of the twentieth century to the present ... Well researched, theoretically grounded, and densely argued, this book is an important read for scholars and students of fashion and/or film." - Journal of Modern Italian Studies, This critically elegant and highly readable book tackles anew how fashion and cinema combine social history with aesthetics. Impressively well researched, Italian Style is a compelling exploration of how the fashion industry and its costume designers shaped the cultural context of national identity. With vigor and clarity, Paulicelli illuminates such films as Fellini's Roma , Antonioni's Le amiche , and Sorrentino's La grande bellezza . A must-read for anyone with an interest in cinema and passion for this glorious art., " Eugenia Paulicelli's Italian Style: Fashion and Film from Early Cinema to the Digital Age , is a lucid and beautifully written text that promotes, with the qualitative value of its intellectual research, the engaging fields of fashion and film.
