In addition to clothes, the fashion world also produces texts. These vary from reviews of the latest haute couture collections shown in Paris to the clothing labels sewn into the coat you bought in a high street fashion store. This presentation will provide background information about the fashion world, explaining the most commonly used terminology needed to understand fashion texts. It also covers the type of fashion texts that are translated, the problems you may encounter when translating texts related to fashion, and how you can learn more about and keep up-to-date with the fast-moving fashion world.
This presentation is aimed at experienced translators with excellent writing skills.
