Since March 1999, just-style.com has developed into one of the most respected and fastest growing apparel, footwear and textile trade sites around. The site's unique content is produced and sourced by a network of correspondents and content partnerships, headed up by Leonie Barrie, former Editor of Clothing World magazine. This is a comprehensive source for news and feature articles about the industry. The content is searchable.
WGSN Fashion Design and Interiors modules provide forecasting, consumer behavior, lifestyle, industry news, product, design, color, and trend information, all with a global perspective, with reports and images added several times daily. The Jefferson subscription only includes the Fashion Design, Interiors, Insight, and City by City sections of the WGSN platform. Access to other areas of the database is restricted by the vendor. Personal accounts for downloads, folders, and spaces must use @jefferson.edu or @students.jefferson.edu domains.
"Everything" Search - the search box on Gutman Library's home page
When you need to research fashion design, an excellent first step is to check our catalog. Searching "Everything" means searching for any source type (articles, books, ebooks, videos, conference proceedings, and more) across many of our 225+ subscription databases at once. You cannot ask our catalog a question, so brainstorm for keywords first, then consider trying a Boolean logic search with AND, OR, or NOT.
| Boolean Operator | Search Example | How does it work? |
| AND | sneakers AND culture |
AND narrows a search by retrieving sources with all your terms Putting terms in quotation marks retrieves sources with those keywords next to each other |
| OR | drawing OR sketchbook | OR broadens a search by finding sources with either term |
| NOT | McQueen NOT Givenchy | NOT narrows a search by excluding sources with an unwanted term |
