The writers included are as diverse and surprising as the subjects they discuss: Franz Kafka and Daphne du Maurier use clothes to signify sexual imagery; George Orwell and John Mortimer describe the impact of clothing on the observer as well as the wearer; Elsa Schiaparelli and Christian Dior discuss the world of couture; Noel Coward and Hanif Kureishi write about men's fashion; Nancy Mitford and William Boyd make observations on British style; and Malcolm X and Molly Keane, Joan Smith and Malcolm McLaren both celebrate and deplore fashion.
Judith Watt has distilled this fascinating anthology from the words of novelists, diarists, poets and journalists, all of whom have used and abused fashion to reveal, revere and rebel.
