Maria Costantino

Maria Costantino is a Lecturer in Fashion Culture and Histories at London College of Fashion. She teaches courses on Fashion Cultures and Histories, Critical Issues in Fashion Research, and Contextualising Your Practice, while supervising dissertations.

Her research explores intersections of fashion, feminism, and the body, alongside material, visual, and digital culture. She also investigates architecture, interior design, and the politics of spaces and places, linking them to broader cultural narratives.

Her publications span diverse topics, including architectural history (e.g., The Contemporary Fitted Kitchen), knot theory in design (e.g., Knoten: für Alltag, Sport & Freizeit), and cross-disciplinary works on art, cocktails, and flags. These reflect her interdisciplinary approach to cultural studies.
