Description

Discover the stories of 25 North American fashion entrepreneurs who have created queer- and trans-focused fashion brands in the 21st century.

Illuminating their journeys of self-expression, identity formation, and resistance within the fashion industry, Queer and Trans Fashion Brands highlights the resilience, creativity, and cultural contributions of the interviewees. It shows how they serve as agents of change, actively challenging heteronormative norms. Kelly L. Reddy-Best draws upon an intersectional feminist framework to offer a nuanced examination of the production, distribution, regulation, and consumption of the products and media associated with these brands and their collective impact on the fashion industry.
