Fashion and Feminism

Episode 3 of 3

David Aaronovitch invites designer Caryn Franklin and author Julie Bindel to debate the contrary position on the impact of fashion on feminism.

David Aaronovitch invites two guest speakers to turn their established views on their head and debate the contrary position. Speakers are given two weeks to research their arguments before appearing in the debate in front of an invited audience at Cambridge University.

In this final programme in the series, the motion is:

"The fashion industry has been bad for feminism."

The fashion industry has produced female icons like Coco Chanel and Vivienne Westwood, but has it helped or hindered the cause of feminism?

The speakers are fashion expert, designer and former Clothes Show presenter Caryn Franklin and Feminist author, Guardian journalist and co-founder of the group Justice for Women, Julie Bindel.

The programme is recorded at Judge Business School in Cambridge.

Producer: David Prest
