Introduction to 'Disney Undressed'
00:00:09
Speaker
Hello there and welcome to what promises to be a lively and stylish investigation into the wonderful world of Disney inspired and Disney adjacent fashion. My name is Marlee Healy and I am the host of Disney undressed. I'm a fashion scholar and curator. And while I write on a variety of fashion history and theory topics that fall pretty squarely and traditionally in the field of fashion studies, I also have a deep seated interest in Disney.
Fashion and Identity in Films
00:00:39
Speaker
This podcast is going to explore all sorts of topics having to do with fashion, whether it be in Disney films, at Disney parks, or elsewhere in the wide world. The concept of fashion
00:00:51
Speaker
is such an intimate and personal experience for many people and clothing allows us to visually communicate ourselves with the world. Costuming for film, both live action and animated, embraces that effectiveness at broadcasting and uses dress as a means for showing a character's personality, intentions, and many other elements of a film's construction. In some episodes, I'll be breaking down the fashions of films
00:01:19
Speaker
assessing their historical inspirations and contemporary influences in order to get a better understanding of how characters are developed and how costuming is effective in that endeavor.
Upcoming Episodes and Themes
00:01:32
Speaker
In other episodes, I'll discuss things like Disney bounding and dapper day, exploring the transition of film costume into real world fashion. This is just the tip of the iceberg. I will have guests from all corners of academia, fashion studies, Disney studies,
00:01:49
Speaker
film studies, et cetera, authors, other podcasters, fashion historians and theorists, psychologists, and many more. My plan for this project is that it be a space where I can talk out my current research, have some fun conversations, and get some new perspectives on some of your favorite Disney properties. I want episodes to be entertaining, insightful, and extremely well researched.
00:02:16
Speaker
I am not affiliated with the Walt Disney Company and all of the views and opinions expressed in this podcast are solely that of myself and any guests that might join me.
Podcast Production and Goals
00:02:26
Speaker
The aim of this podcast is to engage, entertain, and enjoy a lighthearted but well researched conversation about perspectives on costuming in Disney. I'll be rolling out episodes slowly at first while I'm still figuring out the technical elements and realistically managing my own time amongst life
00:02:46
Speaker
and other projects. While I'm doing this pretty selfishly as a personal hobby type project, I do hope that for those of you who join me, you'll enjoy the ride and learn some interesting things at the intersection of fashion and Disney. So please stay tuned and follow along while we explore the magic of costume undressing one Disney film at a time.
