These are journals rather than databases. Whenever you have used a database to find articles, the articles that you found always came from a journal. You might not have really noticed the journal layer. In any case, use these as if they were a database to find articles. Do simple searches like (fashion OR clothes OR clothing OR dress) AND (ital*). If you know of specific Italian designers or labels, try those too.

From the journal's 'About' section: Fashion Theory takes as its starting point a definition of “fashion” as the cultural construction of the embodied identity. It provides an interdisciplinary forum for the rigorous analysis of cultural phenomena ranging from footbinding to fashion advertising. (from the journal's 'About' section)
Fashion Practice is the first peer-reviewed academic journal to cover the full range of contemporary design and manufacture within the context of the fashion industry. Design processes and new technologies fuel the most vibrant areas of fashion practice and commerce today, yet they have been largely ignored by scholarship. Fashion Practice fills this major gap by providing a much-needed forum for topics ranging from design theory to the impact of technology, economics and industry on fashion practice.

This journal brings together research in textiles in an innovative and distinctive academic forum for all those who share a multifaceted view of textiles within an expanded field.
