Description

Everywhere around the world, people make daily decisions about what to wear or how to dress. Using Western and non-Western examples, 'The Visible Self' presents a systematic approach to analyzing these daily rituals that we all share - not simply the act of putting on clothing, but also cleansing the body and adorning it.
