Summary/Abstract: Guja explores cyberpunk codes in fashion, especially during their peak in the second halfof the 1990s and 2000s. Cyberpunk aesthetics even entered high fashion during one ofthe most remarkable moments in its history, when fashion shows turned into spectacleswith a defined narrative and a subversive message. Cyberpunk images were used bydesigners such as Jean-Paul Gaultier, Alexander McQueen, Thierry Mugler or HusseinChalayan. Guja presents this phenomenon as part of a broader discourse, treating fashionimages, following Caroline Evans, as spectres or ‘neurotic symptoms’ of cultural trauma.
