Welcome to the website of Anneke Smelik

Here you can find information about my research and publications.
Feel free to have a look around and download the various texts you want.
There is a special page on fashion research.

• I gave my valedictory lecture at Radboud University of Nijmegen where I worked for over 25 years; I am now retired (which feels like a long research sabbatical!).
  De afscheidsrede is te lezen als essay in De Groene Amsterdammer.
• New article: ‘Polyester: a cultural history’ (May, 2023) in Fashion Practice.
• I am co-editor of the journal Critical Studies in Fashion & Beauty.
  
• Here I am, proudly presenting the book Delft Blue to Denim Blue: Contemporary Dutch Fashion that gives an in-depth analysis of Dutch fashion, featuring 140 pictures.
