Just looking for books? Have a look at the library catalogue here.
Also check the catalogue for Fashion related DVD’s. There might also be relevant AV recordings on the media streaming service Box of Broadcasts. See this post.
You will probably find loads of stuff in our Fashion print journals. They live on the 1st floor of the library.
As a starting point for more extensive research have a look at our Fashion & Textiles subject guide. All nicely put together resources specifically for your study and help with your research.
One of the great resources the University of Brighton subscribes to is the Vogue Archive. UoB students can access this on site or at home.
VADS. This is a useful resource of online images for visual arts including Fashion. See here.
We have also made a guide to university of Brighton subscribed databases for finding copyright cleared images.

Fancy seeing some real examples?
Locally Brighton museum has examples of 1970s fashion in it’s collection.
In London two places you might head for are the Victoria and Albert museum Fashion collections in South Kensington and Fashion & Textile museum in Bermondsey.
Hope that helps, and remember…….
Its a Fashion world out there and we all live in it!
On DVD (1st floor) we have fashion shows from the Brighton Polytechnic days in the 70s. There’s also this interview with Zandra Rhodes.
