| Description: | Fashion, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship: How to Dress Like a Gentleman in the 21st Century Christie Byun teaches Economics and in her spare time she enjoys yoga, knitting, slacklining, and rock climbing. How you dress is a reflection of who you are. Whether you wear a hoodie or a power suit, you're making a fashion statement. And unless you wear nothing at all (which is a fashion statement in its own right!), it's a statement you make every day. If you look around, fashion is everywhere-in politics, sports, music, religion, and business. People use fashion to express creativity, pursue anonymity, or stick it to the Man. Fashion may be the ultimate embodiment of democracy since everyone can use it for free expression and creativity. This course is about fashion in all its forms. From the cotton grown in fields half a world away to the t-shirts we buy at the local mall, fashion is a multi-billion dollar global industry with designers, entrepreneurs, counterfeiters, and ordinary consumers. We will see how the production, consumption, and ultimately the disposal of fashion items has made this industry one of the most important in the world. This course may appeal to anyone with an interest in economics, politics, music, science, or art. |
