Bringing together scholars and writers, it examines how fashion has been approached as a site of identity formation, resistance, and cultural expression. Panelists will discuss key trends, influential texts, and emerging theoretical frameworks—ranging from decolonial critique and embodiment to gender, race, and class analysis—that shape the study of Latinx fashion today. By foregrounding fashion as a powerful mode of visual storytelling, this conversation highlights its role in both challenging and reimagining dominant narratives within and beyond the fashion industry.ParticipantsIsael Andrade is a cultural researcher, writer, and community maker whose work bridges fashion, identity, and equity. Isael’s research explores the preservation and reading of cultural dress practices within Chicano communities.
