The 9th episode was also recorded in Berlin, where I met with Gundula Wolter, the founder of the German Network for Fashion and Textiles (Netzwerk Mode Textil). We first met in Berlin years ago, when I was promoting my co-authored book, Berliner Chic (2011), and researching my dissertation, and we were originally connected online by a common friend, Claus Jahnke, a collector of Berlin and Viennese clothing and accessories in Vancouver.
As you will hear from our conversation, the network that Gundula built, first in Germany, and then expanding it to all German-speaking countries, is thriving and growing today, and produced many important publications (in German), and a whole new generation of fashion scholars in Germany and beyond.
We exchanged our experiences of building fashion networks in Canada and in Germany, and made plans to collaborate more in the future. If you’re interested in what it was like to build the Canadian Fashion Scholars Network, you can read more about it in an article link that I will post on the podcast website.
