Timeless Freedom : The Delphos Gown & Its Wearers

Sanz Alvarez, Alba January 2017 (has links)
This thesis analyses the Delphos gown, created by both Mariano and his wife Henriette Fortuny, as well as the relationship between the gown and its wearers. Following an object-based analysis, the gown is interpreted through perspectives of temporality drawing on theories by Walter Benjamin and Gilles Deleuze. The analysis reveals its timelessness through the concepts of past, present and future embedded in the gown, as well as its in-between location regarding fashion and art. While performing a visual analysis of photographic and painted representations of the gown and its wearers under the umbrella of phenomenology, the study further takes a feminist approach in order to understand how wearing the Delphos gown can be perceived as an act of feminism, in the context of contemporary fashion history and the dress liberation of women.
