Alexis Romano is a historian of twentieth-century fashion and visual culture with a focus on fashion imagery and the everyday, subjective aspects of dress. She completed her PhD at the Courtauld Institute of Art and is currently finishing a book on the development and image of French ready-to-wear (1945-1970), exploring how it connected to women’s experience, national identity, and France’s project of postwar modernization. She is an adjunct faculty member at Parsons, the New School for Design; US Editor of Wear Global Magazine; and a co-founder of the Fashion Research Network.
