192: We're joined by fashion historian Dr. Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell for a fun, thoughtful conversation on women's ever-changing relationships with clothing. We explore the historical context of natural fibers and wedding gowns, and discuss the influence of the Industrial Revolution on our wardrobes. Kimberly discusses iconic styles we love today, like wrap dresses and body-cons, through their original influences and social contexts. We reflect on some of our favorite fashion moments and icons - from Princess Diana and Marie Antoinette, to the supermodels of the 1990s. Dr. Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell is a fashion historian, curator, journalist, and best-selling author. She is currently a fellow at USC Libraries.
