(Re)dressing American fashion : wear as witness
A revelatory new approach to understanding fashion in America that focuses on the stories told by worn, imperfect, and ordinary clothes. Expanding the history of American fashion, this volume highlights garments that carry material traces of everyday wearers' bodies, such as stains, rips, tears, mending, and signs of hand-craftsmanship. In-depth examinations of ten case-study objects - ranging from activist Jae Jarrell's Urban Wall Suit (ca. 1969) to an unknown child's pair of sneakers found at a migrant pickup site in the Sonoran Desert (2009-10) - reveal the ways worn objects are witnesses to American history.

Matt and I also try to play some tennis in the evenings, when it is not too hot.
