Uxía Otero González (Cervo, 1992) holds a PhD in Contemporary History, with the thesis "Domesticating female bodies in Francoism (1939-1975): the (re)modelling of normative femininity and its sartorial embodiment in the transition of the fifties", which received the qualification of Outstanding Cum Laude and International Mention (USC, 2022).
Her work is framed in the spatio-temporal coordinates of Franco's Spain, emphasising the transformations under the protection of the international rehabilitation of the dictatorship and the transition to a consumer society from the 1950s onwards.
Her research on gender in Francoism is pioneering because it connects with sartorial studies or fashion studies, an emerging field around clothing and fashion with great transdisciplinary and transnational potential. In this line, she is developing her postdoctoral project, entitled: "Costumbre(s), attire and sartorial memories for an (in)material history in women of the Franco dictatorship (1939-1975)".
