Between the Museum and the Academy: Fashion Research and its Constituencies

Abstract This article takes a personal perspective on the shifting relationship between fashion research generated in the British higher education sector and in the museum context over the past ten years. It identifies the impact of new interdisciplinary approaches and funding opportunities and argues for the positive benefits of collaboration between the two professional fields The article reflects on the author's experience of working on three distinct exhibition projects at different styles of institution and indicates how the curatorial process enriches and is enriched by a reflexive understanding of research.
