MIGUEL, Paula. El “diseño” como valor y la conformación de un universo de creencia. Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2020, n.88, pp.128-142. ISSN 1853-3523.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi88.3802.

This paper analyzes the process of valorization, legitimacy and increasing autonomy acquired by clothing design since 2000 in Buenos Aires, focusing on professional designers-entrepreneurs. Using as trigger Pierre Bourdieu’s concern for the worlds of “high culture”, the cultural, aesthetic and symbolic production, and his ideas about “univers of belief” to articulate the presence of different actors with particular logics in a relational space shared by producers, products, intermediaries and the public, where tastes and preferences are built, reproduced and renewed, where positions are negotiated and hierarchies are raised.

Keywords : Design; Clothing; Symbolic production; Entrepreneurism..
