This essay centralizes the concept confusion within fashion communication regarding sustainable consumption. The essay is a manifestation of my research that introduces confusion, defines where it occurs and who benefits from this confusion with the aim to soften consumer guilt. The confusion is mapped through a mix of theory, popular texts and visualisations. The essay uses the method of questioning in order to engage and activate the reader. The confusion unfolds itself in four chapters: ourselves, the social political system, the zeitgeist and the fashion industry. This essay introduces confusion as an essential aspect in the sustainability discourse as it counteracts the sustainable development in western neoliberal capitalism.

Visual essay on the body, object and the content, a bodily magazine reader for : A Magazine Reader. Reader number 4 is the result of a workshop by Chet Bugter, Hanka van der Voet and Femke de Vries in which the students of the MA Fashion Strategy generation 29 explored the role and representation of the body in the fashion magazine. We chose the ELLE UK November 2019 issue as our material. As one of the most renowned high-end fashion magazines, ELLE plays an important role in the representation of bodies and, specifically, ideas about body standards.
