Résumé : From the export of goods to the movement of populations, from the establishment of workshops to their relocation, the mechanics of cartography offer new keys to understanding the materials and trades of fashion, on the scale of a workshop or a street, a district, or the planet. Drawing on a multifaceted approach to geography, the texts collected in this book offer a wealth of insights into the artisanal and industrial traditions, gestures, materials, and actors that define the cultures of fashion production, as they unfold over maps and itineraries. Looking back at the establishment of passementiers in the nineteenth century, the logic of proximity among Parisian featherworkers, the textile trade with India, and the craft of hairworking in the twenty-first century, this book brings together voices that help us to better situate what unites these multiple ways of seeing fashion and its savoir-faire. The contributions that make up this book were given in the form of lectures as part of the research seminar Chaire Chanel et le 19M des savoir-faire de la mode at the Institut français de la mode.
