Book

Fashion and everyday life : London and New York

Buckley, Cheryl, 1956- author, Clark, Hazel, author

Overview

Taking cultural theorist Michel de Certeau's notion of 'the everyday' as a critical starting point, this book considers how fashion shapes and is shaped by everyday life. Looking historically for the imprint of fashion within everyday routines such as going to work or shopping, or in leisure activities like dancing, it identifies the 'fashion system of the ordinary', in which clothing has a distinct role in the making of self and identity.
