Sinopsis
This book puts the material back into clothing.
In recent years social scientists have
become increasingly interested in theories of
fashion, but have rarely directly addressed the
material qualities of clothing. By contrast,
traditional studies of dress have focused on
textiles but often neglect the larger cultural
context within which dress becomes consumed as
clothing. This book fills a major gap by
combining these two 'camps' through an expressly
material culture approach to clothing. In
sustained case studies, Kchler and Miller argue
that cloth and clothing are living, vibrant parts
of culture and the body. From the recycling of
cloth in Africa and India and the use of pattern
in the Pacific, to the history of 'wash and
wear' and why women wear the wrong clothes to
restaurants in London, this book shows the
considerable advantage gained by seamlessly
combining material and social aspects of dress
and textiles.
