Abstract Bollywood is at once inspired by the fashion industry in India both thematically and professionally, and simultaneously inspires the fashion industry. This cross pollination between two industries means artists can cross into parallel artistic careers easily and draw from connections in one industry into the other. Economically this allows for both of these businesses to sustain each other at some level. This close relationship between the fashion and film world is a unique feature in India. The authors, costume designers by practice, draw from their ethnographic research on both Bollywood costume design and Indian fashion to shed light on this close relationship.

宝莱坞：电影服装与时尚之间的异花授粉

摘要 宝莱坞在主题和专业上都受到印度时尚业的启发，同时也激发了时尚业的灵感。两个行业之间的这种交叉授粉意味着艺术家可以轻松地跨入平行的艺术生涯，并将一个行业的联系吸引到另一个行业。从经济上讲，这允许这两种业务在一定程度上相互维持。时尚界和电影界之间的这种密切关系是印度的一个独特之处。作者是实践中的服装设计师，他们从他们对宝莱坞服装设计和印度时尚的民族志研究中汲取灵感，以阐明这种密切关系。
