Introduction : Fashion, identity, authenticity and music -- Branding, fashion and music -- Fans, music, clothes and consumption -- Witchy women : fashioning the womanly body of the female singer-songwriter -- White suited men : style, masculinity and the boyband -- Dressing your age : fashion, the body and the ageing music star -- Clothes and cultural identities : music, ethnicity and nation -- Spectacle and sexuality : music, clothes and queer bodies -- Conclusion : music, fashion, image.

The relationship between popular music and fashion has been a culturally significant one since the 1950s, and this book explores how music and musicians play a key role in the shaping of identity, taste and consumption. Using a range of historical and contemporary examples, this book uncovers the way in which fashion and music have worked to shape contemporary attitudes to bodies and identities. Focusing on performers as much as fans, on the mainstream as much as the underground, Fashion and Music provides a lens through which to examine themes of gender, sexuality, ageing and youth, ethnicity, body image, consumer culture, fashion and postmodernity.
