- Broad and engaging overview suitable for undergraduates in
history, anthropology, cultural studies and fashion studies, as
well as the general reader.
- Explains why we wear what we do, why most people in the world
now dress very similarly and why those who resist Western dress do
so.
- The book takes a refreshing global perspective to its subject,
with all continents and many countries being discussed.
- It investigates not merely the symbolic and message-bearing aspects of clothing, but also practical matters of production and, equally importantly, distribution.
