Description

"The first essay, entitled Fashion and the Nation: The Case of
Lidel, 1919-1935, was written by Alberto Malfitano and is about the
magazine Lidel. Founded by Lydia De Liguoro in 1919, the periodical
fervently supported the birth of an Italian fashion, perfectly
aligned with the post-war climate of patriotic exaltation, from its first issue presenting itself as a point of reference for the middle and upper classes eager to be up to date on the latest trends in fashion, luxury and elegance. Lidel, published in Italy between 1919 and 1935, soon became one of the most important women's magazines in the country. Studying the magazine's key role in promoting an all-Italian fashion, the essay by Malfitano, Professor of Contemporary History at the University of Bologna, retraces its emblematic history."
