Costume and fashion have been an integral component of Fellini’s artistic arsenal and have contributed greatly towards the layering and historical montage
of his films. In this article, I will explore the historical implications of Fellini’s use of fashion and costume and the profound impact that they have had on
the aesthetics and texture of his films. Through a close examination of fashion and costume, the chapter highlights Fellini’s contribution towards a new
historiography and archaeology of both Rome/Italy and cinematic form. In the article, Fellini’s cinema, especially La Dolce Vita ( The Sweet Life) in 1960 and Roma ( Fellini’s Roma) in 1971, is approached from both the standpoint of
fashion and from that of the cyclical temporality contained in Benjamin’s theory of fashion, so as to understand not only Fellini but also the contemporaneity of
his approach.

Impressively well researched, Italian Style is a compelling exploration of how the fashion industry and its costume designers shaped the cultural context of national identity. With vigor and clarity, Paulicelli illuminates such films as Fellini's Roma, Antonioni's Le amiche, and Sorrentino's La grande bellezza. A must-read for anyone with an interest in cinema and passion for this glorious art. " gaetana Marrone, Professor of Italian, Princeton university, uSa " Paulicelli's book is a tour de force of film and fashion scholarship, a beautifully written and authoritative exploration of Italian national identity that will appeal to a wide readership. In mapping out Italy's rich cultural heritage from early twentieth century modernism, through the economic miracle years to the present day, this book sets out to do nothing less than define Italian style as embodied by the dialogue between fashion and film. That Italian Style achieves this is testament to its brilliance. " Stella Bruzzi, Professor of Film and Television Studies, university of Warwick, uK This is the first in-depth, book-length study on fashion and Italian cinema from the silent film to the present. Italian cinema launched Italian fashion to the world. The book is the story of this launch. The creation of an Italian style and fashion as they are perceived today, especially by foreigners, was a product of the post World War II years. Before then, Parisian fashion had dominated Europe and the world. Just as fashion was part of Parisian and French national identity, the book explores the process of shaping and inventing an Italian style and fashion that ran parallel to, and at times took the lead in, the creation of an Italian national identity. In bringing to the fore these intersections, as well as emphasizing the importance of craft in cinema, fashion and costume design, the book aims to offer new visions of films by directors such as Nino Oxilia,

She was a founding mother of transnational feminism, of peace activism and of the Made in Italy when it was still only being imagined. She was the first woman to be awarded the International Jury Prize for her dress designs at the Universal Exposition of Milan held in 1906. Genoni achieved international recognition as a result of her opposition to WWI. She was the Italian delegate at the 1915 First International Women's Conference in the The Hague. The first historical and analytical essay, in a bilingual edition, reconstructs the life and career of Rosa Genoni, connecting her multiple activities in the fields of fashion and design and their impact on national identity. The case of Rosa Genoni and the multiplicity of her life allow us to understand the long history of the Made in Italy and the relationship between tradition and innovation. To study fashion can revolutionize the writing of history.

“Eugenia Paulicelli presents a convincing argument for the crucial
signifi cance of clothing and fashion in the mentalities of early modern
Europe; her book is richly informed by the research of economic,
social, and feminist historians, historians of dress, and by her own
alertness to the links between past and present in the ways that dress
is presented today. Her narrative incorporates close readings of a wide
and interesting array of early modern writings, and offers a wealth of
intriguing examples—the fashionable rosary, the mustachioed gallant,
the revolver-toting Frenchwoman—as well as possibilities for further
work in the fi eld.”
—Ann Rosalind Jones, Smith College
“In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries fashion came to
characterize a ‘modern’ new world, one in which changes in shapes,
materials, colors and manners had to be recognized and understood.
Eugenia Paulicelli’s book is a spectacular investigation of the discourse
of fashion in early modern Italy, from Baldassarre Castiglione toz Cesare
Vecellio, to Arcangela Tarabotti. In this book you will fi nd yourself
immersed in an early modern society obsessed with civility, love, vice,
dissimulation and, of course, fashion.”
—Giorgio Riello, University of Warwick
The fi rst comprehensive study on the role of Italian fashion and Italian
literature, this book emphasizes the centrality of Italian literature and
culture for understanding modern theories of fashion and gauging
its impact in the shaping of codes of civility and taste in Europe
and the West. Using literature to uncover what has been called
the “animatedness of clothing,” the author explores the political
meanings that clothing produces in public space.
