Caroline Evans examines the intersection of fashion, modernity, and the macabre, tracing how the avant-garde has historically utilized themes of death and decay to challenge traditional aesthetics. Through a rigorous analysis of runway spectacles and historical costume, the text situates fashion as a profound site of cultural critique that reflects the anxieties of the twentieth century.
