136 pages Getting Dressed teaches sociology through the everyday decision of what to wear. It is about the rules that shape how we dress and how and why we conform. It is about how and why we imitate others. We may think about clothing as our personal style and identity. But our personal style is not so personal; it is social, shaped and limited by countless social influences. We use clothes to rank and treat each other as better and worse. Yet we need each other to become who we are when getting dressed. This book is about what we wear, why we wear it, and why it matters. 391 YOD g9781138291744 Lasalle College Jakarta Library Catalogue 391 YOD g FD10402 Fashion Design 391 YOD g 1864 2019-05-14 10:40:22 2019-05-14 10:41:18 machine generated
