Abstract

Amidst the currents of globalization and technological advancement, the fashion sector is undergoing swift growth, accompanied by heightened cross-cultural interactions. This study delves into this realm through the lens of three thoughtfully chosen films that spotlight cyberpunk fashion. These films offer perceptive viewpoints into the intricate interplay among fashion, gender, and cinematic storytelling. By deconstructing the transformative impact of cyberpunk fashion, this research accentuates its function in molding societal perceptions of gender roles. It extends invaluable insights into the dynamic fusion of fashion, gender dynamics, and the craft of visual narration. The exploration of cyberpunk fashion facilitates a deeper comprehension of the fashion industry’s evolution. It serves as a wellspring of creativity for designers and brands, fostering innovation. Concurrently, it steers consumers toward a more judicious consumption and appreciation of diverse aesthetic values across eras within their pursuit of fashion. This investigation enhances scholarly exploration and furnishes a more all-encompassing grasp of the subject matter.
