Analyzing a designer’s work/collection
- Pick a designer Christian Dior and his collection: the New Look. And mention what research
methods(ethnography/fieldwork, auto-ethnography, survey, semiotics, object- based analysis, oral History and
narrative, Written Documents/texts, social experiment, ethnomethodology, Internet sources and social media)
you are using in this research. - Give a brief background of Christian Dior(background, upbringing, experience, etc.)
- Describe his/her collection/s and analyze what they mean. What is the designer trying to tell the
audience/society/women or men? Is the designer redefining some existing ideas about something? Is he/she
making a social statement and acting more like an activist rather than a mere designer? - Include references/bibliography at the end.
