From Runway to Research, Unlock 90+ Years of the Fashion Industry and More

This archive provides exclusive access to the backfile of Daily News Record (1917-2008)* a leading fashion trade publication. Users gain access to 90+ years of breaking news, expert analysis, and imagery chronicling market dynamics, design evolution, and business strategies in the fashion industry.

This title was an industry authority for both insiders and consumers and the archive meets researchers’ needs for primary source materials on the history of the fashion trade. With its specialist focus on men’s fashion, it will crucially address the scarcity of digital sources for research in this sector of the industry.

Daily News Record was one of the longest-running fashion trade titles, issued 5/6 times a week through most of its run, and provides researchers with a wealth of content. With the Daily News Record Archive, users can assemble the source material to identify and interpret the key industry events and trends, such as shifts in consumer preferences, innovations in materials/manufacturing technology, brand strategies, societal impacts of fashion trends, sustainability practices, and retail/distribution trends.

* Our policy is to include each issue during this date range and to scan from cover to cover. Due to the rarity of some of the original print volumes, however, there may be some gaps (issues or pages). The earliest available issues for digitization were from 1917; an ex-title, preceding this date, is not included.
