‘fashion and clothing are in the business of dressing something up as something else, that they take the body and disguise it or present it as something that it is not. It is the claim that fashion and clothing impose meanings on a raw material that either does not originally have any meaning or which has a sort of natural meaning, The second is that fashion and clothing may be used to mislead, to make people respond in ways that they would not or should not.’


‘is clothing an aesthetic object separate from the body it encases or does it protect and enhance the human form? A central concern is not only the clothes that cover our bodies but the bodies we recover under our clothes.

’Benstock, S, Ferriss, S(ed.) 1994, On Fashion, Rutgers, USA.
