This project was made possible through the dual MSLIS degree program between New York University and Long Island University. I am grateful for the guidance from the Digital Scholarship Services team and the support from the dual-degree administrators.
This Manifold entry explores the pedagogical possibilities of 3D photogrammetry into fashion study collections as a response to digital media in and the mediatization of the fashion industry. Beginning with examples from contemporary brand's use of digital fashion presentations, it argues for the inclusion of digital fashion objects in academic settings. Through a review of photogrammetry’s pedagogical applications in archaeology, the paper underscores its potential to enhance object-based learning. A case study of a 1950s feathered hat from NYU’s Costume Studies collection demonstrates both the opportunities and limitations of using 3D scanning technologies to document and analyze fashion artifacts. The project advocates for intentional, critical incorporation of digital tools in fashion education to reflect the evolving landscape of fashion communication and preservation.
