Description : <\/b>What do our clothes say about who we are or who we think we are? How does the way we dress communicate messages about our identity? Is the desire to be “fashionable” universal or unique to Western culture? How do fashions change? These are just some of the intriguing questions that Fred Davis attempts to answer in this provocative look at what we make of our clothes – and what they can make of us. According to Fred Davis, much of what we take for individual preferences actually reflects deeper social and cultural forces. We live in an ambivalent social world, characterized by tensions over gender roles, social status and sexual expression. Predicting what people will wear becomes a risky gamble when the link between the private self and the public persona can be so unstable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":61553,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[21562,22973,21727,21593,21600,25037],"product_tag":[25356,25145,22284,25355,25354,25357],"class_list":["post-49388","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-books","product_cat-culture-and-technology","product_cat-fashion-accessories-selection","product_cat-fashion-and-philosophy-fashion-accessories","product_cat-fashion-system-selection","product_cat-mode-et-art-en","product_tag-felix-kramer-en","product_tag-livres-en","product_tag-luxury-en","product_tag-peter-lindbergh-en","product_tag-university-of-chicago-press-en","product_tag-wim-wenders-en","first","instock","product-type-external"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
